Any Lost Loved Ones?

Last night at CATALYST 2010 - BEYOND ORDINARY over 185 teens were in attendance and 32 teenagers responded to the call to live for Christ!!! Over the last 3 weeks more than 250 different teenagers have walked through the doors of RSSM Student Ministries. God is moving!!

Do you have any loved ones that you are praying for their salvation? I want to encourage you, DO NOT stop praying and believing.

A couple days ago in my devotion time this statement from Paul stuck out to me as he was expressing thank you's to people in the 16th chapter of Romans.

"Greet Andronicus and Junias, my relatives who have been in prison with me.They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was" -Romans 16:7

Did you see that? Andronicus and Junias were Paul's relatives in Christ praying for Paul's salvation while he was still Saul the persecutor of the church. What a glorious day it was not just for Paul in Acts 9, when he met Christ but for those who had PRAYED for him as well.

I am sure there were days when Andronicus and Junias were discouraged and frustrated about praying for their relative Saul. After all, nothing about his outward behavior gave them any hope. ALL of that CHANGED in a moment. When they least expected, Christ appeared to Saul the persecutor of the church and transformed him into Paul the Apostle.

It does not matter what outward circumstances are. Christ can change a life in a moment. Keep Praying and Keep Believing!

"Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up" Gal 6:9

Have a Great Day!

Blessings,
Pastors Darren & Toyie
