Sunday Is Coming

Good morning from Georgia,



We will be leaving Monday for Michigan, God willing.

The Sunday we went to Atlanta to hear Charles Stanley, I came back with a few sermon thoughts. I shared one last week here is another. We were driving into the city and the road went from four lanes to 6 then 8, 10, 14.

My mind went to the passage:

Matthew 7:13 - 14 (ASV) 13 Enter ye in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. 14 For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it.

Once we got to Atlanta, we were looking for Peachtree Street. Do you know how many streets in Atlanta have the name Peachtree in it? Here we are on this wide road looking for the narrow road to get us where we need to go, you guessed it, we took the wrong road. Matter of fact, we took a couple of wrong roads before we found the one we needed. The sermon thought is this: the world will tell you there are many ways to Heaven, just take any of these roads and you will get there. That is a lie. There is only one way to Heaven and that is through the Lord Jesus.

John 14:6 (ASV) 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.


Jesus didn't say He was "a way." He is the only way, just like us on Peachtree Street. We didn't get to where we needed to go, but, when we found Peachtree North it took us right to where we needed to go. Don't believe the world. Put your faith in Jesus. Should He return today, don't get caught going the wrong way, on the wrong road.


As always on behalf of LaVon and I, thank you for your continual support and interest in our ministry by giving in many ways, by prayer, e-mails, phone calls and your financial gifts. Without any of these we could not continue what God has called us to do and that is to share the Living Water with the a thirsty world through the RV ministry.

Have a great day, love you, pass it on.
Don
