Hello ,
When Texas
pastor Jim Denison was in college, he served as a summer missionary in East Malaysia. While there he attended a small church. At one of the church's worship services, a teenage girl came forward to announce her decision to follow Christ and be baptized.
During the
service, Denison noticed some worn-out luggage leaning against the wall of the church building. He asked the pastor about it. The pastor pointed to the girl who had just been baptized and told Denison, "Her father said that if she was baptized as a Christian she could never go home again...so she brought her luggage."
Commitment!
"Lord, give
me the heart that is totally devoted to You. In Jesus name, amen."
Have a great
day and God bless!
Pastor Mike /
The Open Word
