A time to reflect........
The Wordless Book No words to tell the story, however this book makes the Truth of the Gospel very simple. The book is made up of four different coloured pages and a cover. Page 1 ...is a black page and stands for sin. Romans 3:23 tells us we all fall short of the glory of God. How many times have we stumbled or got lost in the darkness? It is the same with spiritual darkness. We are all sinners. Without God, we stumble our way through life. Page 2 ...is a red page and reminds us of the blood of Jesus who died for our sins and brings us salvation. Jesus died in our place and rose again to show His power over death. When we accept His gift of salvation, we are saved. Page 3 ...is a white page and tells us that once we accept Christ, we are cleansed. The promise of God is that He will forgive us all our sins. We are a new creation! Page 4 ...is a gold/yellow page and reminds us that Jesus has gone to prepare a place for all who accept Him as their saviour. We call that place heaven. The cover of the book is green and reminds us we have to grow in our new life. Plants need sunshine, rain and good soil to grow. As Christians, we need prayer(sunshine), God’s Word(rain) and fellowship with other Christians(good soil). The simple Truth of the Wordless Book. Scripture Verse: 2 Peter 3: 18 "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen." Margaret Denholm Prayer Lord - Your love flows like a stream into the ocean of your Grace. Lord - Your love encircles this world, displays your faithfulness. Lord - Your love is patient and kind, brings wholeness and true peace. Lord - Your love is all we desire to heal our brokenness. As all things pass and fade away love remains Eternally Amen. |
