Draw near!

Luke 15: 1

Now the tax collectors and sinners were all drawing near to hear him…

One would expect that these lost people would draw near to Jesus, because He had a heart for the lost.

That’s why Jesus came…to seek and save that which was lost.

It’s as if this group of people were hanging on every word that Jesus spoke.

I think they were anticipating that something powerful was about to happen.

I believe that’s where we are as a church today.

The excitement is brewing, and people are anticipating something powerful.

But why should that surprise us?

Jesus hasn’t changed, and His power has never been diminished, and it’s available all the time.

Maybe it could be this way consistently if we just paid better attention?

What if we purposed ourselves to hang onto every word that Jesus ever spoke?

But I’ll take the excitement now any day, and I love what God is going to do with the everyday common folk of our church.

Jesus is still seeking and saving that which is lost., and that’s what’s going to happen Sunday through Tuesday.

He’s never changed, and He never will.

Maybe as you anticipate the movement of God’s power, you’ll actually be changed?

I’d welcome that for our church people, in a Winneconne minute…
