Our lesson on Sunday morning (14th)
will focus on the Jesus’ mother’s love for her Son and the lessons we can learn
from their relationship. Jesus’ mother
presented Him to God (Luke 2:22). She
carried Him to worship (2:42). She trusted
Him and gave Him freedom to be Himself (2:44).
She worried about Him and didn’t always understand Him (2:48-50). She gave Him responsibility and held Him
responsible (2:48). She treasured His
life (2:51). She provided for His growth
in every way and so He grew in wisdom, in stature, and in favor with God and
man (2:52). She expected great things
from Him (John 2:5). And Jesus exceeded
every expectation. What about us? As parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles,
older siblings, and family and friends, do we live our lives before the boys
and girls who will be following our words and examples in a way that will lead
them to grow in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men? Yes?
Terrific! Let’s keep on keeping
on. No?
Let’s make a real change today and get on the right track.
On Sunday afternoon at 1:30 our lesson is entitled "Living Life the Way Jesus Lived Life." Jesus never gave in! He never gave in to TIME. He never gave in to HINDRANCES. He never gave in to DOUBT. Are you living your life the way He lived His. Can we? Of course we can. Will we? Now that's up to us.
Coming
up at Watterson Trail!
Our BIG 100% Attendance Day in scheduled for Sunday, June 4th
(Only 3 weeks away). I hope every member
of the Watterson Trail congregation has marked this day to gather for Bible
study, worship, and fellowship. Wouldn’t
it be fantastic to have 149 assembled together to honor God and encourage one
another? Plans are to meet for Bible Class at 9:30 and then worship together at
10:30. We’ll have a delicious “potluck”
lunch together, meet again at 1:30 for a short devotional period, then break
for the day.
Also, our Tuesday Summer Series begins on Tuesday,
June 6th with Brother Brent Donoho from Martinsburg, Indiana
coming over to share a lesson on our theme; “Seeing Jesus in the Midst of the
Storms of Life.” His lesson is entitled
“Seeing Jesus in the Midst of Doubt.”
Our Tuesday Summer Series will continue every Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. in
June, July, and August.
God is so
good to us; yesterday, today, and forever.
May we live for Him every day in a way that honors Jesus Christ, His
most precious gift to the world.
