March 22 Eyes on Jesus Ephesians 1:18
ANNOUNCEMENT: Just a reminder all Church Members! We are making a new church directory and are encouraging all church members to sign up to get your picture made for the directory. The benefit for you is that you get an 8 x 10 portrait absolutely free, and a church directory, if you get your picture made for the directory. Picture dates are April 13, 14, and 15. Pictures will be taken in the Family Ministry Center by professional photographers that work for Universal Church Directories. To sign up you can do one of the following:
1. Go to ucdir.com, click the "Photography Appointment Scheduling Login" button. Enter the church code nc436 and church password photos. Then follow the instructions to sign up.
2. Call the church office at 919-365-5558 between 9 and 12, Monday thru Friday and ask the Church Secretary to sign you up.
3. Someone will sign you up on Sunday Morning in the Education Building, Assembly Room prior to Sunday School and directly after Church.
The more families that sign up, the better the church directory will be. Please sign up! If you are not a member, and have been attending our worship experiences, please have your picture included in the new directory! We want a complete and accurate directory of all the church members.
Good morning from Pastor Glen Brock, Baptist Tabernacle Church, Wendell, North Carolina… “May He enlighten the eyes of your mind so that you can see what hope His call holds for you.” (Ephesians 1:18)
WWJD…Do you remember the bracelets that were popular a few years ago? WWJD… “What Would Jesus Do?” We are told and I continue to preach, that we are to be like Jesus. What does it mean to be “like Jesus?” Think about it…This old world has never known a man like Jesus. His heart was pure, and his lifestyle and character were without fault or blemish. He was in tune with the Father, and He heard every whisper of the Father God. Jesus brought to mankind His mercy, that was powerfully capable of forgiving our sins. He reached out to great and small, and He was engaged in the lives of those who were in need. This man called Jesus, endured the suffering and shame and pain and ridicule, yet He never quit, and He was determined to fulfill His mission for Humanity. Jesus is the ultimate model for humanity, and we are to embrace His mission, His Grace and His Mercy and emulate Him in every area of our lives! To Be Christ-Like, is to emulate Jesus Christ! We must focus on Jesus and, we must embrace His example for living and we must make Jesus the center of our existence! Christmas is a great time to reflect and inspect and adjust our priorities and become more “Christ-Like” in all that we do! We have the EXAMPLE, now let’s BE WHAT HE WANTS US TO BE! In His Love…Stay Strong, Stay Focused…THE BEST IS YET TO BE….
