One At A Time

 From Christy Smith: I recently went to Sunset Beach with my daughter, Leah. It was a wonderful time spent together at Leah's favorite place in the world. She loves everything about the beach and the ocean, and plans to study marine biology in college. As we were walking along the shore, Leah became very aware of the marine life scattered on the sand by the low tide. She decided it was her mission to rescue those creatures "left behind" by returning them to the sea. One by one, whether it be tiny barnacles clinging to driftwood or unique blue button jellyfish, she carefully scooped them up, waded out a good distance and put them back in the water. Each animal she found was valued and cared for, no matter how small. The shoreline stretched for miles, but Leah only concentrated on helping one at a time. Each of us has the capability of making a difference in someone's life with the help of Jesus Christ. He calls us to a life of helping others but many of u

Inheritance

Image
From Robert McKethan: I often think about my earthly inheritance…contemplating what I inherited from my parents, grandparents and great-grandparents. I also contemplate my inheritance from Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve’s failure to obey God guaranteed that I (and the rest of mankind) received a sinful state. As I think about my circumstance, I fully realize that I am incapable of escaping the consequence of Adam and Eve’s choice to disobey God. Regardless of how ‘good’ I am, I am a sinner deserving eternal banishment from Heaven. Because of my inheritance, I am a sinner by omission and by commission. I sin by omission when I fail to follow expectations found in God’s Word...one of which is my failure to spend more time studying God’s Word. I am a sinner by commission since I do things that are contrary to God’s Word. Last week, I was very angry (in words and thought) when a motorist ran a red light as I was turning left at an intersection. You see, I am like the apostle Paul a

From Christy Smith: I recently visited my friend Kaity at her family farm. She has been welcoming lots of babies lately...baby cows!  There have been eight calves born in the last two weeks, with five more expected any day.  It was a blessing to see all the new life that God has created! Kaity's favorite cow is named Panda.  She is a black cow with a white face.  Panda's baby looks just like her, the only white-faced calf on the farm. Panda's calf was created to look just like her momma, and it's easy to identify her calf among the herd. The Bible tells us that we are created in God's image.  An image represents and reflects something or someone.   God created us to reflect who He is to all those we encounter.  We are to reflect God's love, kindness, compassion, and grace so that He alone will be known and glorified.  As Christians. we are to be easily identified among the "herd"...not because of who we are but because of who He is.  I
