Leaving Town
Well, I'll be gone for the weekend, but I'll be sure and make a post as soon as I get back.For now, let me leave you with some thoughts from my morning devotional the other day.
I was reading in my Good News Bible, in Revelation 2, when I read one of the most encouraging and challenging calls to action, in verses 24 through 29:
"But the rest of you in Thyatira have not followed this evil teaching; you have not learnt what the others call 'the deep secrets of Satan'. I say to you that I will not put any other burden on you. But until I come, you must hold firmly to what you have.
"To those who win the victory, who continue to the end to do what I want, I will give the same authority that I received from my Father: I will give them authority over the nations, to rule them with an iron rod and to break them to pieces like clay pots. I will also give them the morning star.
"If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches!"
