The service at Crossroads

There was such vibrancy and life at the service yesterday. Everyone, including the children sang and danced amidst such excitement as we could feel the presence of God. It was great seeing 15 year old Mollety Tsabalala and 12 year old Nancy Nkomo sing 2 songs as they prepare to head off to the start of the second school term.

Stephen shared from Romans 12:1 - 21. It was interesting reading the scriptures again on renewing the mind. Change starts with our minds. "Real people need real change in real times." God remains the same but as we become Christians and experience a new life with him, we start out with such fervour and energy. As the years pass, we can drift away from God. We need to be rooted and grounded in Him. Stephen then asked a couple of questions which led to interesting discussion:

1. Are we living or existing? Living
2. Is there a God?Yes
3. If there is a God, does He care? Yes
4. If there is a God, does He care for me? Yes He does!
5. Does God care about what I do? Yes

Stephen encouraged the church to keep their spiritual fervour in serving God, to share with God's people who are in need and to practise hospitality.

May God help change our thinking and the way we interact with one another.

We look forward to next week's message!
