Dear LifeSpring Family,
Recently, as I was doing my scripture memory verses, Ephesians 2:10 spoke to me.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
After reminding us that we are all saved by grace and not of our own doing, Paul tells us in verse 10 that we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus. And we all know that God and our Lord Jesus Christ being perfect, only create works of art. Paul also reminded us that we were created for the purpose of good works. That God prepared beforehand for us, that we should walk in them.
I wonder if all of us were created for good works that only us individually can walk in them. For example, only me from LifeSpring can show God’s love to my direct neighbor, Milton. Only me from LifeSpring had the opportunity and relationship to invite my close friend Tom, of almost 30 years to come and join in our Volunteers Appreciation BBQ last Sunday. This makes sense because no one else from LifeSpring knows them or has a relationship with them.
Allow me to suggest that you ask God to tell you what good works He has prepared beforehand for you personally.
Be courageous and go on a faith adventure of obedience. And walk in them.
Shalom,
Jerry
