A Change....
All of us want to change, at least a little. Alot of us are not happy with everything about ourselves.When I look inside of my life, I see so many weaknesses and failings, but the greatest thing about that is that God wants to take me to a higher level, and he is daily.He really loves you and me so much more than we could ever imagine.Take some time and grab your bible and read the story in Acts 9:1-31 . The story of Sauls conversion. God looked through the outer wall of Sauls life and saw potential inside of him. Saul was on his way to this city to do harm to christians, but God in his great love , had another plan, his plan was to turn Saul into one of the greatest disciples of Christ that this world has ever seen.All of this happened because God reached into Sauls heart and changed it. After Sauls sight was restored the bible says "at once he began to preach". Sauls message has changed. In a three day period he goes from wanting to do harm to anyone who follows Jesus ,to sharing the love of Jesus with everyone. A change of heart. that only can happen with God.Where are you today? Maybe you have never asked Jesus Christ to come in and live in your life.Maybe you are a christian and you are struggling. Let God change you on the inside. That is when we really begin to fall in love with Jesus and see his work in a greater and more personal way,then we will see that God has a vision for us so much greater than we have had for ourselves.Take the time and read the story in Acts 9. Then take a few miniutes and let God speak to you.All of us are in need of change today. God is the only source to make that happen. Decide to let him change you today.Earlier,I said that alot of us want to change, and are not happy with ourselves. We can spend a lifetime trying to figure out how to do this on our own ,or we can surrender our lives to Jesus and let him work inside of us. Then true happiness will follow.

What a great Biblical message from Pastor Greg at the Deep Tuesday night! Thanks for teaching right from God's Word and making it very clear how God can work. "Come on somebody!"
Isn't God amazing how he can take a sinful man like Saul and change him into "Paul" a mighty man of God. It was a lesson meant for the young and old.
Pastor Greg I enjoyed your talk about change last night. I had a great time with my friends. Also, I learned some new things about Saul/Paul that I did not know.
