Atlanta CPA Presents Word for the Day: Becoming Whole Romans 7:13-25…Taking Christianity Into the World
When a friend fell of her bike and suffered a severe brain injury, doctors weren’t sure she would survive. For several days she reminded suspended between life and death. The first good news came when she opened her eyes. Then she responded to simple voice commands. But with very small improvement, anxiety remained. how far would she progress? After one difficult day of therapy, her husband was discouraged. But the very next morning he exclaimed:” Sandy’s back ! ” Physically, Mentally, and emotionally, Sandy was becoming the “self” we knew and loved.
Sandy’s fall reminds me of “the fall” of mankind (Gen. 3) And her struggle to recover parallels our struggle to overcome the brokenness of sin. ( Rom 7:18) If only her body healed, recovery would be incomplete. The same would be true if the brain worked but her body didn’t.
Wholeness means that all parts works together for one purpose. God is the one healing Sandy, but she has to work hard in therapy. The same is true of us spiritually. After God saves us through Christ, we must “work out” our salvation (Phil.2:12)- not to earn it but to bring our thoughts and actions into agreement with His purpose- Julie Ackerman Links
More like the Master I would ever be,
More of his meekness, more humility;
More zeal to labor, more courage to be true,
More consecration for work He bids me do. -Gabriel ( to become whole, keep yielding to the Holy Spirit. )
With much love, I would greatly like to appreciate all the volunteers that keep this ministry running. We will be having a LOVE Concert Feb 14th. It won’t be to raise $money$ but to show our love and appreciation for keeping this ministry alive. So always remember we thank you for all your support, prayer, and love.
Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. -Phil 2:12
GO JESUS GO JESUS GO! LOVE, PASTOR 7
Pastor 7 with 7 Bridges to Recovery is doing great things to Feed the Homeless of Atlanta while spreading the word of God. I suggest you go down and see what he is doing on the weekends to take the message to the streets of Atlanta. I believe he would be a great speaker to the whole congregation and Discipleship Groups as people are looking for opportunities to get real with their faith by being the very Hands and Feet of Jesus Christ.
You can read about his Ministry at http://www.7bridgestorecovery.org/home_page.html
We are actively involved in going and supporting Pastor 7 and the great work he is doing to Serve the Lost, the Last & the Least.
