John 14:24
24 Anyone who doesn’t love me will not obey me. And remember, my words are not my own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent me
Tap into the Power
Jim Davis tells the story of a lady who owned a small house on the seashore of Ireland at the turn of the century. She was wealthy, but frugal. When electricity was offered along the coast, some of her friends were surprised that she had it installed in her home. Several weeks after the installation, a meter reader came to her door, and asked if her electricity was working okay. She assured him that it was. He then said, “Could you explain something to me? Your meter shows hardly any usage. Are you sure everything is okay?” “Certainly,” the woman said. “Each evening when the sun sets, I turn on my lights just long enough to light my candles, then I turn them off.” The woman had tapped into the power of electricity, but wasn’t using it. Her house was connected, but her habits had not changed to draw upon that power. If you know Christ, the power of Christ has saved you. Will you let the power of Christ now transform you?
Who Is the One?
When my wife and I got married, we knew we were supposed to be one, but the problem was figuring out which “one” it was! I say that with a twist of humor, but in all seriousness, we had to learn quickly that Christ is the One. He is the decision maker, the head of our marriage, and the head of our family.
