Take a good look friends, at who you were when you got called into this life. I don't see many of the "brightest and the best" among you, not many influential, not many from high-society families....Everything that we have - right thinking and right living, a clean slate and a fresh start - comes from God by way of Jesus Christ. That's why we have the saying, "If you're going to blow a horn, blow a trumpet for God. (Excerpts from 1 Cor. 1:29-31, The Message)

Inspiration Break

Posted by Trudy


This is a beautiful performance by the four Tenors in the Roman Coliseum .  As I listened I couldn't help but visualize the many believers who were mauled by lions in that very place under the fierce Neronian persecution years ago.

But their gaze was set on Christ and by His grace He saw them through that horrific time and brought them safely home.

What are you facing today?  Set your gaze on Christ, stand firm in Him and let His grace and mercy give you the strength to carry you through. He is faithful...He is Amazing...He will see you through.

 But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion's mouth.  The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.   2 Timothy 4:17-18
