Brothers and Sisters,
In obedience to God’s command, John the Baptist proclaimed the Light that was to come in the person of Jesus Christ. “Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight his paths.”
Now God is sending us out into the world to witness for the Light of Christ, “you shall be My witnesses to the end of the earth,” Jesus says to us, His followers. And in obedience to His command, we go out to minister in love. We go out to bind up wounds. We go out to be a sign of unity and reconciliation in a world where people are estranged from one another - married couples - families - races - nations -
churches.
In obedience, we go out as witnesses to what God is doing through the Light of Christ, to harmonize all mankind in peace, brotherhood and love.
Remember, God lives in us. God is bigger than us. Let Him show through us.
We are the light of the world.
God Bless,
Deacon Del
