New Year Dinner Fellowship

We have been invited to attend a dinner fellowship at a brother's home in the 4th day of the New year.It's great to have home visit which I seldom do these days.

I could see the home master do well preparation and so everyone attending enjoyed the meal and had fun talks together. As pastor it's great to receive the love and invitation our family as a whole to be guests. Thanks the Lord for His kindness and the loving act of our b/s.

Healthy church

“A Healthy Church is the Best Witness to a Hurting World” - Daily Bread

The quote has been sent me from a received prayer letter of a sister in Christ.

It's really great to reflect upon the functioning and usefulness of a local church which is both healthy and attractive for the conversion of the world at large !

Between & Beyond changes

The theme of Changes marked the designate US president Barack Obama's electoral campaign speeches.

We live between changes and sometimes even eager beyond changes made.We have a heart for eternity. Changes include material changes,change of forms,our interests and habits,our deep hold personalites and even our solid temperaments.In our lives we hold to some root-tight beliefs and values like love,life,promises and human dignities which seem not being able to change or necessarily change.

Actually we are living between two ends in anticipation to eternities.Beyond these changes and unchanges we are encouraged to repent and return from our bad habits and wrong acts.We also are asked to forgive those who harm us and learn to forgive.It's considered the greatest virtue ever in our lives to forgive.

To the new year I have to appeal all to navigate towards the following five ends:

Worship Our Lord !
Aim for eternity !
Hold to our Lord & master !
Walk with those who are having same fellowship with us !
Hold to our greatest hope laid before us!

Have a happy new year!
