10 Nov Go and Tell – Part 2
Ps Lindsay SmithPs Lindsay Smith ministered this week, and she continued the series “Go and Tell” and reminded us that just like in our day to day lives, our spiritual walk has seasons too. She said that winter with Jesus is possible and can present itself in the times we wait on a reply from Jesus or when we feel far from God. Christmas is meant to be a time of celebration, yet loneliness is highlighted more at this time as we have become more socially connected online while walking around with a false sense of community. Ps Lindsay asked us to look at things that helped us grow in Christ and what has hindered our walk with Christ. As we have all fallen short in our walk with God and at times it could have been caused by a more urgent awareness of ourselves (lacks, issues, heartache), instead of focusing on Christ. Ps Lindsay said that great things happen in small groups as it can help accelerate your walk with Christ by attending all events at church, start serving at church and connecting in a view group. Joining a group helps you connect with others who can cheer for you but also challenge you with the Word of God. As everyone needs to learn and grow, because if you are not growing you are dying. Looking at an ECG, Ps Lindsay said that in an ECG there’s still a heartbeat as Jesus is the greatest physician who can sort out our heartbeats and bring us back to life. |
