I appreciate Jim's lesson on Sunday about Accepting Christ. The first ABC in our new Central Mission Statement. Accepting Christ is the most important thing we can ever do in our lives. I became a Christian in 1974 when my uncle baptized me and my brother Steve on a hot Sunday afternoon in front of about 70 family members at the Augusta Church of Christ in Augusta, Kansas. What a feeling I had on that day. But with that decision brought responsibility. I have not always lived up to that commitment, but thanks be to God for the grace he gives me through Jesus, I try my best to live the way He wants me to live, trying to be a light to a dark world.
Accepting Christ means giving of one self. I appreciate the hearts of the Central Family as you give each day to help serve one another as you glorify our Heavenly Father! I encourage you to be that light, be thankful for the gift you received on that special day when you accepted Christ.
