CM Update 6/20/10

Luke 19:17 -- And he said to him, 'Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.'

God does not need us to do His work. He does, however, desire (and command) us to be about His work and be faithful in it. Our Father and Master wants us to partake in His work in order to shape and mold our character into that of Jesus and to teach us about His nature and love for people. We have a choice...to be found a good servant by being faithful in the work or to be a lazy servant in the work He has for us, earning ourselves a bad name.

Remember, the Lord loves us very much and strongly desires, and allows, us to have the privilege of joining Him in a work that will last forever. Be diligent in your service to the children and in sharing the Gospel with them and you will no doubt hear, "Well done, good servant!"

In the Grace of Christ,
Pastor Alan
