Pondering....

From Janelle Handley:

I would like to take this opportunity to write about meeting Bill Rhoads and his message. I first met him at our Home Church meetings, which are held on Wednesday morning. This is a great time of fellowship and fortunately for me, we meet across the street from my house! Anyway, at one of our meetings Bill shared the message that God had given him about The Golden Rule, loving our neighbors and doing to others as we would have them do to us. I know we have heard this before - for some of us since we were kids. However, this time it really hit home for me.

I began pondering those words. Yes, what if everyone, especially we Christians, treated others as we would like to be treated? What if we totally loved our neighbors, family and friends even when it was not easy to do so. To me this became a very deep concept not just something I had heard in Sunday School all those years ago.

We must remind ourselves that this is the very core of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He loved us so much and we must love others and show the world His love through us. God Bless you and keep you safe in His arms this year!
