A Thank You


Every day I ask God to use me and for others to see Jesus through my daily living. I am truly blessed. I work in music & ministry. Because of His grace I have met and continue to meet some of the most remarkable people. I have known Preston & Arlene for many years now & I feel honored to be able to help them each year with Project Backpack. This year a new civic group has joined to help in the effort & this is what they said. I wanted to share this email with you, because it has moved me. If you want to learn more about The Miranda Faith Foundation go to the website, www.mirandafaith.com

Here's the email

Thank you for including the Brunswick Lions and our efforts to help with Project Backpack. Last night while listening to Way Radio I heard more than an announcement of where to find our Yellow School Bus today. I listened as your on air person spoke of the work the Lions were doing to help. I am very thankful for the more than expected words.

There is no greater purpose in life then to serve the Father and no better way to do this service than to serve His Creation. The service Way Radio gives to those of us in the Kingdom is beyond measure. I thank you for your service and those involved in the continuance of Way Radio by providing the many small things it takes to keep a Christian Radio Station on the air for others like me are able to enjoy.

As a follower of Christ, I searched for an organization where I can serve, yet, reach out in a way a "Christian Organization" may not. In the Lions, whose motto is "We Serve" I am able to do this. Mind you we are a Civic Club, not christian, but as a christian I am not able to separate the two so the work flows into my civic responsibility. Lions International is a world wide organization which is not to promote any one religion over another. I respect that and honor that as a Lion, but again, I am in Christ first and as our Local Club have chosen to help Children and Youth in the Brunswick area what better way than helping children receive supplies for school.

Yesterday, Preston and I were speaking of how The Miranda Foundation was not able to reach certain business due to the Bible being placed in each book bag (such nonsense) yet, a Civic group such as the Lions were able. I truly believe this to be the providential Hand of God as the work of the Kingdom moves about and look forward to continuing this process next year, hopefully getting an earlier start.

Respectfully,

Frank

When you ask...

Jesus to use you, be ready! I knew when I completely surrendered my life to Christ that it would be a challenge and not easy. (Romans 7:25) Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature[a] a slave to the law of sin. I honestly thought that I had no comfort zone, but it seems that every time I get "comfortable", God changes the direction in which I am going or He intercedes personally by allowing me to encounter a life that is going through a struggle, and it "interferes" with "my life". So I have come to the understanding I will never be comfortable, and I am becoming OK with that. I have also come to realize that if I am in a state of being comfortable, then I am not growing spiritually. (Psalm 119:2) Blessed are those who keep his statutes and seek him with all their heart Last night during Bible study as we were going over the passage in Ephesians 4,...

Discipline In Discipleship

Accepting Jesus Christ as Savior is easy. We learn at a young age that Jesus is knocking at our hearts and is asking to enter in. We sing songs of God's love. We so very quickly accept God's forgiveness when we sin. We can justify our actions through Jesus loving us as we are. Following Jesus as Master and Teacher is hard. Again, we learn at a young age that the world is a cold, cruel place. We view hatred on TV and social media. To forgive when we have been wronged is almost impossible. To put another person's needs before ours is practically unheard of. To understand someone else's actions takes too much effort. Jesus never said being a follower would be easy. As a matter of fact, he said that it would be a narrow road that few would be able to travel. "S o in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you,   for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.  “Enter through the narrow gate.  For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to...

Inside Outside

Why do we view sins as not so bad, bad, and really bad? I have been thinking a lot about this over the past week. Isn't sin, sin? Are we to judge as God judges? God's word says; "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." -Romans 3:23 My sins, and they are many, are not better or worse than yours or your neighbors - or anyone else's for that matter. So who are we to pass judgement on another? Why spew contentment and hate when we know what another person's sin is? Isn't God's forgiveness and love for them just as much as it is for us? There is no "them" and "us" in the eyes of God so we need to stop dividing people up into these two categories. " Dear friends, let us love one another,  for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God  and knows God.   Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.   This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son  into the wor...
