Sorry about my lack of blogging, again. My travels took me to Cape May, New Jersey for a regional Secretary/treasure meeting. The hotel we stayed at charged $9.95 per day for wireless connectivity to the internet. Needless to say, I was just too cheap (frugal?) to pay the fee. I guess I should also say that I just missed the Jersey shore so much that I couldn't resist walking the beach during all my free time. I spent the first thirty years of my life in Jersey. There's nothing like its beaches. So why bother doing email or blogging?
During one of the devotion times the following was shared by one one of my colleagues. He called the devotional, "The Heart Beat of God." The text was:
Matthew 28:18-20 NIV
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
The points were these:
1. "All Authority." The enphasis is on all! Authority speaks of power. There is nothing or no one who can stand against God and His servants.
2. "Go and make." This is the plan. Methods may change but the plan is always the same. This plan of God will be accomplished.
3. "I am with you always." Always is the emphasis. We do not fulfill God's plan alone. He has all the power, a perfect plan, and keeps His promise.
