Subject: Echoes of Today Dear Friends, Today is the only day we can change. A fleeting moment on the grand canvas of eternity. Don’t talk, just act. Words are but shadows unless they are illuminated by deeds. Don’t say, just show, for actions are the true echo of the soul. Don’t promise, just prove, letting your life be the testament of your faith. In the quiet recesses of our hearts, we know: Don’t waste time to prove it on the cross, for the cross has already spoken. Be cautious of people whose actions don't match their words, those whose lips move but hearts remain still. Courage in Christ is not the absence of fear, but the resistance to fear, the mastery of it—a dance with the divine that strengthens the spirit. There is no other road, no other way, no other day but today! This is the day the Lord has made, a tapestry woven with threads of faith and action. Overhearing what they said, Jesus told him, "Don’t be afraid; just believe." In this, we find our compass, our guide through the tempest of doubt. Today, we stand on the precipice of change, hearts alight with the courage only Christ can bestow. Today, we act, we show, we prove. Today, we live as reflections of His love, unwavering and true. With faith and action, Pastor Steven G. Lee (June 13, 2024)
