Remember

“Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, 28 for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” Matthew 26:26-28 (ESV)

As we continue to celebrate and remember the words and deeds of Jesus on this Holy Week, we remember the time that He took to spend the Passover meal with those that were close to Him. It was on this day that He took the time to institute for them a supper that we all would be able to remember His death and passion.

Is It I?

“And they were very sorrowful and began to say to him one after another, “Is it I, Lord?” Matthew 26:22 (ESV)

It is an awful feeling that comes over us when we are betrayed. Betrayal is difficult because it comes from someone we never thought would betray us. When we put our trust in someone and allow them to get close to us, it is not in our minds that this person would eventually betray us. Jesus in His earthly ministry met and ministered to many people. He also brought those close to Him who we knew, and despite what He knew about them, He brought them close anyway.

A Little Faith Is All You Need

“And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.” Matthew 21:21 (ESV)

Faith is not something most of us think about until we need to use it. It is easy to say we have faith when everything in our lives is going well. It is when things begin to fall apart around us, and we cannot see the sun because of all of the rain that we begin to tap into our faith, or even think about our faith. No matter how big the situation is that we are facing, if we have just a little faith it is more than enough to get us through any situation.

Hosanna

04-05-2020

“So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!” John 12:13 (ESV)

Today we celebrate Palm Sunday. It is a day that marks the most holiest time for Christians. It is the time where we prepare for Holy Week and the death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Today is the day that we remember His triumphal entry into Jerusalem as King of King and Lord of Lords. The Scripture reminds us that, they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord,

Jesus Will Pick You Up

“We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;” 2 Corinthians 4:8-9

There are times in life when it feels like whatever could go wrong, does go wrong. There are times when it feels like once we make it through one thing there are five more things that we must go through. Each of us has experienced a time when it felt like we were going a multiplicity of things at the same time. It is in those moments that we must not forget that we never go through anything alone, and that God will see us through.

It’s Not Where You Start That Counts

“So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.” Matthew 20:16

Michael Jordan is arguably the greatest basketball player of all time. He has won multiple championships and MVP awards, but he was not always considered a great basketball player. He was cut from his high school basketball team as a junior, but he did not let that stop him from getting back up and trying again. He was seemingly down, but he was not out. As we go through this life there are going to be times when it will seem like we are last, but it just may be that God has a bigger plan for us.

Trust The Lord

“Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.” Job 13:15

As we travel on this road of life we will have those moments when we will have our faith shaken. It is when our faith is shaken that we will struggle to keep our trust in the fact that The Lord is always with us. There are days when it seems like the sun will not shine, and our nights will never be darker. It is in those moments that we must trust God more than in the days when the sun is shining it’s brightest.

Clay In The Master’s Hand

“O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter has done? declares the Lord. Behold, like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. Jeremiah 18:6 (ESV)

A potter takes their time and care to craft a unique creation. It takes time and imagination to bring to pass the creation that the potter makes. The potter has to make sure that the clay is just right and while they are sculpting the clay must keep its shape. Just like the potter has clay, we also are clay in God’s hand and He takes the time to mold and shape us to be His unique creations. The Scripture reminds us of this question, can I not do with you as this potter has done?

“Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.” Isaiah 55:1 (ESV)

Each of us have things that we want and things that we need. Many times our wants and our needs can become intermingled and we lose sight of what is a need and what is a want. There is no doubt that The Lord takes care of all of our needs and He also gives us some of the things that we want as well. The Scripture reminds us to, come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
