Labor Day is upon us,

and with it the celebration of workers who contribute their energy and skills to make our world a better place. Since time began, man has developed ways to work better and smarter. In the past decade, texting is one such invention; allowing people to communicate in short abbreviated messages.

Since many people will not be working on Monday, I thought perhaps this weekend would be a good time for us to catch up on important texting codes.

God loves us, but  our sin separates us from Him. However, we can receive His message of love and respond. We can repent of our sin and turn to Jesus as Lord of our life.  We can pray…

What Message from Christ do you need to hear today?

Heavenly Father, thank You for caring about us. Thank You for providing Jesus, who took responsibility for paying our sin debt. Thank You for the gift of forgiveness and eternal life. In Jesus’s name, Amen.
