Happy Birthday 12/6

Romans 12:6  
We all have different gifts. Each gift came because of the grace that God gave us.

God has given you a very unique and important gift. You have a remarkable level of patience when it comes to the artistic expressions found in puzzles, mosaics, and other unique configurations.

You enjoy finding fractured images in piles of scattered pieces of varying hues. You are sure that when the random jagged edges are fit together properly, these tiny colorful segments of will reveal a beautiful picture of what was meant to be. While others may see chaos and confusion, you see a collection of shapes and colors ready for organization.

From a spiritual perspective, this gift is vital to the advancement of God’s Kingdom.

 Many people are broken. You have been gifted with the ability to help others piece together their shattered lives and become the masterpiece that God designed them to be.

Your ability to face brokenness with a logical and non-judgmental approach makes you the ideal candidate to bring the message of wholeness to those who are broken.

Tetelestai Recovery

The Last Word

lastwordrecovery

As part of an ongoing prison ministry at Lansing Correctional Facility behind the razor wire, we discussed Tetelestai (It is finished) with the inmates. Together, we explored the truth and finality of the power of Jesus’ words which delivered complete healing, grace, and forgiveness to all of mankind.

Not only did it call an end to addiction, dysfunction, and criminal behaviors, but it created a starting point for the beginning of something new, powerful, and unexpected. On the third floor of an old stone prison chapel, we embarked on a weekly tour of Jesus words and works.  We explored, discovered, and embraced the expansive impact of His words, “It is finished!” into other areas of our lives where we still struggled.

There we found freedom, commitment, courage, grace, love, compassion, fulfillment, and the desire to face our ailments and our addictions head on and in a permanent manner. Christ’s grace and what he did on the cross cannot be undone and neither can his words “It is finished.”

We documented what we discovered in that old prison Chapel. We wanted to preserve for others the testimony of our experience with the power of Tetelestai.  Jesus’ word had enabled us to move out of a lifestyle of relapse, despair, hopelessness, and criminal behaviors. We were able to move into something life-changing, and life-preserving, just like Christ’s work on the cross. We were excited to share how Jesus made us each a new creation.
