It is the desire to be the one with all the power and control. We want power and control. The devil found out that Jesus already had the power and control. We need to realize that the most important power and control is self-control over our selves, our selfish appetites, and our sins. Indeed, like a new parent, we want to tell everyone we meet about our love of our Lord Jesus Christ and the blessing He has brought upon our church family.
Spring is also a time of new spiritual beginnings.
In the forty days before Easter, we ask each recipient of the Vision to give a copy of the enclosed Visitor Booklet to a neighbor, friend, or relative and invite him or her to our church for worship, Bible study, or fellowship. Pray for that person for forty days, asking God to open his or her heart to God s forgiveness, mercy, and grace. Trust that the Holy Spirit will work in their life to bring about a new beginning.
