Dear Family,
CatalystPeople, Be strong and courageous. Cling to our Lord. Make a habit of continually looking up at Him, checking to make sure you are with Him. He is not just the provider of all we need but HE IS the Provision. Himself. Seek to know Him more intimately and you will find that He is spontaneously pouring Himself, His nature, His steadfast faithfulness through us.

Family, we are headed for rough waters. We need to allow the Holy Spirit the prerogative to expose dependencies and affinities in our personal makeup that are not centered on Him. Dependency on Him alone, identification with Him alone is all that will survive and all that will give us the presence of mind and the faith that will make us the strong, steady light that will continue to be a beacon for the lost as His Day approaches.

Jesus came to draw a clear line in the sand. Paul articulates it well, "Confess the Lordship of Jesus and believe that God raised Him from the dead." Yes, I know, there is an infinite ocean of details about God which, once known, transforms our thinking. But those are not meant to be battle lines between those who confess with their mouths that Jesus is Lord and was raised from the dead. That confession and belief is the clear distinction between "one of us" or "not one of us." Don't fall into camps of Christians who deride other camps over functional differences. Our knowledge of the Word and doctrine is not to be a point of debate but an asset, added to the whole Body; the insight which Jesus has given to uniquely equip us to function as a benefit to the rest of the Body.

Let go of anything God asks for and let Him do His wonderful work through you. "For such a time as this." t
