I have posted today’s sermon on my sermon blog. Based on Exodus 20:1-17, Philippians 3:4(b)-14, and Matthew 21:33-46 it is entitled “The Power Of Love”.
Here’s a portion of it:
I found this on Facebook the other day and want to share it with you today:
When I say “I am a Christian”, I am not shouting “I am clean living”, I’m whispering “I was lost, but now I’m found and forgiven.”
I don’t speak of this with pride. I’m confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
I’m not trying to be strong. I’m professing that I’m weak and need His strength to carry on.
I’m not bragging of success. I’m admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
I’m not claiming to be perfect. My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.
I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon HIS name.
I’m not holier than thou, I’m just a simple sinner who received God’s good grace, somehow!
