The death of a friend or loved one brings us to tears. By the time Jesus arrived at the home of Mary and Martha, their brother Lazarus had died. It brought tears to Jesus even though He knew He would raise Lazarus from the dead. Some of us are still weeping for our brother Earl, even though we know that he too will be raised from the dead. Death brings tears, but that is not the end of the story.
The good news is that God can breath life to death. Jesus can breath life to death. The Holy Spirit can breath life to death. And with Christ in us, our words and actions can breath life to those who are dead in their trespasses. Join us Sunday as we allow the breath of God to being new life to us so that we may go forth and share the good news of new life.
This Sunday the choir gets to sit and worship as the Praise Team leads us in worship. It's Birthday and Anniversary Sunday too. So come and celebrate God's love and life for all - but especially for YOU! You belong at Cornerstone.
Rev Sandy, Pastor
