We Study to Remain Faithful
As children begin to grow up, parents have many questions. The most important question ought to be - "Will they remain faithful?" In 1 Thessalonians it is clear to see "this church" was a great one...yet Paul was still concerned that they remain faithful. Why? Because, "It is for the faith and the faithfulness of others that we exist as the Body of Christ." (quote by Shawn Lindsay of Ozark Christian College - guest preacher this morning; Ozark is a mission New Life supports regularly).

If the Lord Builds it
People don't like to admit it, but much of what we do is driven by a need to feel secure. In Psalm 127, Solomon speaks to the vanity of such pursuits. How can we find real security in a frightful and insecure world?

Generation Next
1 O my people, hear my teaching;listen to the words of my mouth. 2 I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old- 3 what we have heard and known, what our fathers have told us. 4 We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, His power, and the wonders He has done. 5 He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which He commanded our forefathers to teach their children, 6 so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. 7 Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget His deeds but would keep His commands. Psalm 78:1-7

Godly Children
In the last several passages of Ephesians Paul has been highlighting the relationships in which submission and honor is important. Is it any wonder then that he includes the relationship of Children to parents? However, this is no passing comment or obligatory nod, but rather a topic that is extremely important to God and has dramatic consequences in your lives.

Welcoming Jesus
God calls each of us to nurture and protect those God entrusts to our care for as long as they are in our care—and even those we never meet, such as the abandoned children of Haiti or the war victims about whom Nuhad Tomeh told us Thursday when he visited us. God fills each of us with talents and skills for welcoming those who need us. We can wipe a tear--bandage a scraped knee--comfort a scraped heart--tutor a struggling student—encourage a struggling adult--hold a hand—offer a hand-up--give a smile--pray for God’s children everywhere. Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not me, but the one who sent me.
