Worth Sharing Again…

Terry Rogers's avatarTerry Rogers

Someone sent me this.  I thought it was so good, I had to share it with you.

How to stay safe in the world today!

Where is the safest place?

  1. Avoid riding in automobiles because they are responsible for 20% of all fatal accidents.
  2. DO NOT stay home because 17% of all accidents occur in the home.
  3. Avoid walking on streets or sidewalks because 14% of all accidents occur to pedestrians.
  4. Avoid traveling by air, rail, or water because 16% of all accidents involve these forms of transportation.
  5. Of the remaining 33%, 32% of all deaths occur in Hospitals. So, above all else, AVOID hospitals.

But…….

You will be pleased to learn, that only .001% of all deaths occur in worship services in church, and these are usually related to a previous physical disorder.

Therefore, logic tells us that the safest place for you to be at any given point in time, is at CHURCH!

My Woman & The Word…

I LOVE it when something in God’s Word really connects with my wife, and she shares it with me!

Last night when we were reading, that happened.

This is what she read…

1 Peter 2:21-25 The Message

21 This is the kind of life you’ve been invited into, the kind of life Christ lived. He suffered everything that came his way so you would know that it could be done, and also know how to do it, step-by-step.
22 He never did one thing wrong, Not once said anything amiss.
23 They called him every name in the book and he said nothing back. He suffered in silence, content to let God set things right.
24 He used his servant body to carry our sins to the Cross so we could be rid of sin, free to live the right way. His wounds became your healing.
25 You were lost sheep with no idea who you were or where you were going. Now you’re named and kept for good by the Shepherd of your souls.

What’s verse or passage of scripture, leaps off the page and into your heart, when you read it?

The Rogers Family Easter

I don’t post enough pics of the awesome family God has blessed me with!

Here’s a few we took at church on Easter Sunday.

You ARE His Masterpiece! (YES, I’M TALKING TO YOU!)

Intentional: an action performed with awareness; done deliberately, on purpose.

We kicked off a new Series here at Faith Renewed on Easter, called INTENTIONAL.

Week one, I shared how God was VERY intentional in His plan to save us.  Jesus came to earth, to die in our place. and for our sin.  I’m SO thankful that He had a plan!  BTW, He ALWAYS does!

Throughout the Series we’ve been looking at ways we should live INTENTIONAL lives.

This week, we took a look at how God was ONCE AGAIN, INTENTIONAL (another shameless plug for the Series) when He made us.

Ephesians 2:10 says, for we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago.

God has a PURPOSE for your life!

You may feel like you are so far away from His plan today.  The  The Good News is, He HASN’T given up on you!

Jeremiah 18:4 says, the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter; so he made it again into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to make.

DID YOU READ THAT?!!  HE DOESN’T THROW US OUT!!!  HE MAKES US AGAIN!

If you feel far from Him.  Pray something like this:  God, put me on the wheel again.  Make me into what You would have me to be.  I thank You for not giving up on me, and for making me into Your MASTERpiece.
