If We Make Christ our Master
For me, one of the takeaway applications of yesterday morning's message is this:Choose your master/Master or your master will choose you!The speaker also reminded /encouraged us with this;If we make Christ our Master and missionday by day, the end will take care of itself;We will be able to be faithful to the endand echo the words of Paul in2 Tim.4:7" I have fought the good fight,I have finished the race,I have kept the faith."
So thank You Lord, for a new morning filled with new mercies!Lam.3:22-23
Lord, because no one can serve two masters ()
help us choose You!
