Day after Easter

Easter services at The Heights seemed to go extremely well (here I must admit that my job keeps me looking at the logistics of the morning sometimes stronger than I'd like). My prayer is always that we "do" nothing in vain...that all we do glorifies God. I can't help but think that there were many people here yesterday that will be like the thief on the cross whose life may not show a lot of "effort" (fruit) toward glorifying God, but who by His grace believes and is saved. All Praise to God!

I know the reality of life is that there were two thieves that day on either side of Jesus...and the other mocked Jesus. Some here yesterday did nothing but mock the grace of God shown to us through the death of Christ on the cross. I pray for their souls and hope that God tarries long enough for them to see the nail scarred hands as Thomas did and hope one day they too will be resurrected from death into a relationship that brings glory to God!
