Grace for your spirit August 6, 2013

Grace for your spirit
But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.            I Peter 3:15 

As I sit and talk with church people and preachers, I hear lots of talk about what we are against, but get little talk about the hope we have in Christ.  I wonder if the people in the world feel the same way?  Oh how we love to complain about the sin in the world, the moral decay of our country, and how the government is robbing us of our rights.  Our "Thou shalt not" list, is quite lengthy.  How much better we could serve the world if our conversation would be about how the Lord has changed our heart, the hope that we have in Christ, and how He can change the world.  When our hope is in the cross, let's share that message of hope.
