Be all that you can be by Gary Rose

 

Unlike my normal way of doing things, I chose this “Sermon Starters” picture. First, I am NOT preaching a sermon AT You. Next, this picture brought back a memory from about 1972. It was about 4am and I was sitting at my desk in the quality control office and I said to myself: now what? Why? Because I was in early 20’s and had a job that many were envious of; a quality control supervisor.


A friend had recently given me a copy of the “Living Bible” and I was reading through it with joy. It seemed to me that the things within this book was the pinnacle of human existence, the highest goal that a person could possibly achieve, namely, being a genuine Christian.


Five decades have come and gone, but this one fact remains: If you aim high in your goals, you just might reach unexpected heights. Even if never reach your goals and fall flat on your face, you just might be covered in stardust.


Think about what you would like to do with the rest of your life and then consider what God can do. The Bible says…


John 3 ( New American Standard Bible )

16 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
