If we count in Sunday's through Lent, today is exactly 40 days since you started your 40 day renewal!
There is no class this evening, however it's now time to meditate and reflect on Holy Week and on what Jesus dying on the cross meant for you and me. We've been focused on getting ourselves physically ready these past 40 days, so now take some time and ask why? What is the big purpose/reason you took on this challenge? How does physically cleansing our body help us spiritually?
The most amazing time of the year is upon us! Without Christ we have nothing, but with him we have eternal life!
The Purpose Driven Life - Finding Your PurposeCHAPTER 37 - SHARING YOUR LIFE MESSAGE
God has given you a Life Message to share.
When you became a believer, you also became God's messenger. God wants to speak to the world through you.
You may feel you don't have anything to share, but that's the Devil trying to keep you silent. You have a storehouse of experiences that God wants to use to bring others into his family.
Your Life Message has 4 parts.
1. Your testimony: the story of how you began a relationship with Jesus
2. Your life lessons: the most important lessons God has taught you
3. Your godly passions: the issues God shaped you to care about most
4. The Good News: The message of salvation
Don't miss the opportunities God is giving you.
Point to Ponder: God wants to say something to the world through me.
Verse to Remember: "Be ready at all times to answer anyone who asks you to explain the hope you have in you, but do it with gentleness and respect." 1 Peter 3:15b-16 (TEV)
Question to Consider: As I reflect on my personal story, who does God want me to share it with?
