Monday’s thoughts
AUGUST 26: Sermon title will be “Once Upon A Time, There Was….”
Scriptures: Ecclesiastes 9:11-12
Mark 1:14-15
Emphasis: We will sing at the beginning of the sermon “This Is The
Day”, a verse out of the Psalms. It also becomes the basis
for the message. I want to stress how we do not honor or
respect the present moment. We get wrapped up in our
yesterdays and fantasies for our tomorrows, and often take
the HERE and NOW for granted, or just plain miss it!
The scriptures remind us to “be very present” with ourselves
and others. As the Hebrew prophet who wrote Ecclesiastes
says, “no one knows when his/her time will come”. We do not
need a lot of left overs or “wish I would of’s”. It is
time to take care of business, which means getting our
priorities straight.
I look forward to seeing you Sunday.
