Running with Jesus 2015

Acts 28:16 "When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him."

                  I don't know about you but I would love to be guarding Bro Paul! I can never get enough of his teaching! Paul's Jewish training gave him so much insight into the Messiah's fulfillment and purpose! His conversion blinded him in order to give him spiritual eyes to see truth that set him free from the bondage of religion to relationship with Jehovah through Christ. 

                We have had an amazing run through the books of Luke and Acts this year written by Dr Luke. We ran physically beside Jesus in the flesh and then we ran beside great men filled with the Spirit of Christ given at Pentecost! We have seen Christ working in and through them to share the gospel. 

                  The most amazing thing is the same Spirit that lived in Paul lives in us and wants to work through each of us to reconcile man to God! Luke, Peter, Mark, Paul and all the disciples had an amazing journey and work. The same God has an amazing work for us too as we journey through life, if we allow His Spirit to guide lead and direct our lives.

 Father, thank You for letting us join You as we run through life. We pray we will be more available as we begin a New Year shortly! Let us say Father here we are Your bond-servant. Reveal to us Your divine will and purpose. Help us spend more time seeking You in 2016(2018)!

Tomorrow: We are at the finish line! Hard to believe another year has come and gone!  I will share 2016's theme in the morning so meet me here!
