Loving people one step closer to Jesus

So many people talk about the “good old days” or spend their time worrying about the future.  Neither of which we have any control over.   We have this moment, this day, this time to live.   But God did not call us just to exist in these times.  If we are followers of Jesus, then God has given us access to abundant life!  How do we tap into that with everything that is going on around us?  How do we keep from getting discouraged?  How do we fight in a way that brings glory and honor to God?  How can we TRIVE in modern day Babylon?

If you only had one week left to live, what would you do? As I pondered this question, I began to come up with a list of things that I wanted to do for me. People I wanted to spend time with, places I wanted to see, foods I wanted to eat, and on and on. What about you?
Over the next few weeks, we are going to look at the last week of Jesus’ life. Not every event but a few that represent what He was focused on. He was a man on a mission. Nothing would
stop Him from His final destination, the Cross. Jesus’ last week was inspiring for some educational for others. It was confusing to some of those closest to Him and infuriating to those in opposition to Him. We are going to look at all of these and a few more as we enter into the Easter Season together.
