Good morning friends,
Have you left your mark here on this earth for God. He made you for a special purpose...no one else can sing that special song, write that book, poem or piece, no one else can preach that special sermon, no one can do that special "thing". God called you to do.
I write these words to you today, reminding you that things can change so suddenly. My mother in love Melrose Edwards, passed away last night and I am quite shocked as I learned of her passing. A woman who never gave up or gave into her sufferings but kept faith in God through it all. She certainly did leave her mark here on this earth. Lending helping hands to all who needed. Just last Christmas I asked her to help someone in need in Jamaica and she did without question.
The memories I have of her are good.
What will you be remembered for my friends? Begin today to create good memories with your family and friends. Give God the glory with every gift of love or kindness that you share.
It is possible to do this even in the midst of your suffering. If you have a made up mind. God will give you the grace and strength to complete your assignment for each day. The amazing thing is when we are aligned to his perfect will, plan and purpose, he gives us such great peace, joy and blessings as we travel along life's journey.
Remember tomorrow is guaranteed to no man.
May God teach us to number our days:
Psalm 90:12 - 17
12
So teach us to number our days,
That we may cultivate and bring to You a heart of wisdom.
13
Turn, O Lord [from Your fierce anger]; how long will it be?
Be compassionate toward Your servants—revoke Your sentence.
14
O satisfy us with Your lovingkindness in the morning [now, before we grow older],
That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15
Make us glad in proportion to the days You have afflicted us,
And the years we have suffered evil.
16
Let Your work [the signs of Your power] be revealed to Your servants
And Your [glorious] majesty to their children.
17
And let the [gracious] favor of the Lord our God be on us;
Confirm for us the work of our hands—
Yes, confirm the work of our hands
Amen
Walk good in Christ
Till we meet again
Pastor J
