Morning: The sermon, "Hallelujah! What a Savior," focused on 1 Timothy 1:12-17. In this passage, Paul encourages young Timothy to keep his eyes on Jesus and to seek to bring him glory and honor. He reminds Timothy that Jesus looks beyond what we have done to who he wants us to become. He also reminds him that Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Finally, Paul gets caught up in praise reminding Timothy that Jesus is the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God. The sermon closed with these four principles:
1. You don't have to be worthy to get God to touch you, God's touch makes you worthy.
2. Thank God you're not me. You're better than that.
3. God saves sinners like me (and you) to demonstrate his unending patience.
4. A heart awakened to grace delights in worship.
Evening: We got to hear a stirring recounting of a recent mission trip to Haiti by Roger and Debbie Burns (my Dad and Mom), and Bro. Jon Calloway. It was a blessing to hear how God is working through his people. Let's continue to pray for the ongoing work in Haiti.
