Philippians Closing
Acts 26:16, "But get up and stand on your feet: for this purpose I have appeared to you, to appoint you as a minister and a witness not only to the things which you have seen, but also to the things in which I appear to you;" (NASB)
We began our study this past year based on this scripture's theme. To explore the journey of scripture seeds defining purpose as shared from Paul and Timothy. We had no idea how upside-down our months would come. And how purpose could take on many paths.
However we paused to hear the Spirit's powerful words that too often get buried under daily stress. And considered seeing through a new perspective through the challenges and gifts from Him that have entered our lives.
And trusting in His foundation. His ongoing word. His on going invitation to walk moment by moment in faith. He is present.
Thank you for participating in our journey. New Year Blessings!
INVITATION (John 1:29-51)
Drawn by heart hunger
one by one came to see
respond to invitation.
Struck by recognition
certainty within
reached to kindred souls.
Listened. Hoped
for promises. Answered
call. 'Follow Me'.
"And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life." 1 John 5:20
"Unless the Lord builds the house,
They labor in vain who built it;
Unless the Lord guards the city,
The watchman stays awake in vain.
It is vain for you to rise early,
To retire late,
To eat the bread of painful labors;
For He gives to His beloved even in his
sleep."
Psalm 127:1
