Weekly Inspiration Greetings from Pastor James, In society today all paths seem to lead away from the Word of God. We just want to do what is right. We find our lives being shaped by a world that are calling sinful ways normal. People’s lives are being shaped by media, activist and extremist that are infiltrating the very fiber of our society. One’s life today is being shaped by twisted truths. There are even false Bibles out today that leave parts of God’s true Word out and change and insert words that conform to worldly cults and desires. In trying to be modern and with the times one becomes disillusioned by the world. They find themselves living a messed up life. Some are too proud to admit our life is out of control. We feel we can handle our lives. We seek God but we want to control what He does in our lives. We want to accept part of His Word but leave out what does not conform with the way we want to live. We want to call the shots as we always have. We want God’s help in our lives but we want it on our own terms. We want to give up evil ways and habits but on our own time. But God does not work that way. Read Jeremiah 18:1-11. God told Jeremiah to go to the house of the potter to learn a lesson. The bowl or pot the potter was making didn’t turn out as he wished. The potter then formed it into a shape or form that seemed best to him. Put your life in God’s hands. We may have let the world shape us into something that is not pleasing to ourselves and God. The only way for salvation is to let God break us down and reshape us into the image of Christ. Only God can break something that is ugly and unpleasant and turn it into something beautiful. Each of us! Not some of us, a few of us, or the elite among us. Each of us has a goodness that longs to be revealed and released. Come worship at Living Water Christian Church. Only the infallible Word of God can mold someone broken into something beautiful. And He wants to reshape and mold you in His Image. Only our Lord and Savior can take those broken by the world and mold them for goodness. Blessings to all, Pastor James W. Boyette Living Water Christian Church 72 N Lake Ave. Front Royal VA 22630 |
