January 28, 2024

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday January 28TH 2024, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

Today I’ll be missing church service for a rare Sunday morning. I’ll be staying at home preparing for a medical procedure tomorrow afternoon. The Good News is that my church (here in Sebring Florida) records and broadcasts LIVE all of our services, so I can watch it at home.

Before COVID some churches were already livestreaming their services, but during COVID that strategy expanded exponentially. It’s a great way to get the Gospel out to the masses in any way and at any time. But watching a church service online is definitely not a substitute for attending a church service LIVE and in-person. I don’t believe that you can grow as a mature Christian unless you are in fellowship with other mature Christians. I believe that it’s crucial to be a physical part of a church family – not just on Sunday mornings – but on other days of the week as well – with small groups, and bible studies, and other activities – in and out of the church building. We must remember that the church is not the building. The church is the living and breathing body of Christ.

Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other. (Romans 12:4-5 NLT)

My testimony is featured each week here on #SundayScripture whether it’s part of a sermon, or just me writing about the events of the past week. Hopefully it encourages you and inspires you to seek the Lord, and get closer to Him with each new day.

If you wish to learn more about the God I know then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.
