STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK:   Luke 2:39              
“And when they had performed everything according to the Law of the Lord…”  The Law of God is good.  Of course, it always shows us our sins:  but that is good, too!  We need to be driven back to the forgiveness of Christ.  But the Law also shows us the truly blessed way to live – as Mary and Joseph found their joy in a godly life, so should we see the Law as a guide for Christian living, as the roadmap for saying thank you to the Lord for all His grace and mercy to us.

T BLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
