Together for Christ, Together for Joy.

Grace and peace to you friends,

"Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God." Philippians 1:27-28

Brothers and Sisters let us remind one another to constantly renew our minds in the Word of God. That we might have strength to let go of our worldly lusts and treasure Christ above all else. Making Him tangibly valuable (that is visibly to the world around us) through our living, more valuable than money, houses or the approval of men. We can do this working together, with the other believers around us, uplifting and encouraging one another on to Holiness. By the grace of God our living like this produces a joyful out pouring of love onto the world around us. When that happens not only will they be convicted of the truth but they shall see the true power of God at work, in us who are being saved. By God's grace we will also persevere joyfully through the toughest trials of life as we go through them together. Remember the words of our Lord when He said,

"Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven" Mathew 5:12a  

Hallelujah! God's grace is sufficient for us! So let us stir one another up, bear one another's burdens and joyfully bring praise to our King as we strive together in Christ our treasure.

For the Joy of Your Faith and the Love of Your Treasure,
Teagan
