.. sold out to Jesus...

sunshine and crisp air, actually a nice winter day in Georgetown Ontario.... church today again, I love the routine of it and the newness of it every Sunday morning..

love worshipping together with this church family.. for almost 14 years now... feel so at home and accepted and loved..
challenged by our faithful pastor, who boldly speaks the truth, not afraid to call sin a sin and be used by God to point out where we need to take a closer look...

as we do in this church of ours,  we study and meditate on one passage throughout the week, come together one night as a small group to share what God has been saying to us through it, and then on Sunday our pastor preaches about this exact passage...

so for this week....

I am not going to write about sexual sin anymore and how we must flee from it..
I am not going to go on about the fact that He has bought us, His children, for a price..
I am not going to point out that we are here to bring glory to Him ...
or that we need to be totally committed.. that we need to give all of us to His service, faithfully relying on Him, seeking Him out, so that He can make us holy, like He is holy...

for all of us, that know Him, and what He has done for us, we need to commit ourselves to living a life that represents Him well to those arounds us.. allow Him to be Lord of all areas of our lives.. no matter what we are struggling with, we need to be authentic , admit our weakness to each other and with the help of the Holy Spirit overcome it... because with Him we can.. after all, we can be confident of this, that he who began a good work in us will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6)

Blessed beyond measure again today.. ready for a new week, standing firm in my faith and excited to find out what He will have for me this week....
