What is Your Life

Sunday 24th 2010 saw John Gadenne (assistant Pastor) take the pulpit to share with us a message about life and the direction each of us are taking. He showed us the swiftness of life through God’s word, one of which can be found in James.


James 4:14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

He then explained that even though we’ve made mistakes in the past, we need to turn from them and do all things for the glory of God. ‘Life is like a concert path, we can’t change what’s already been laid but we can change the direct in the future’. Some of the ways John showed us we can change our path are:

- Doing all things to the glory of God

- Peach the gospel

- Praise God in all we do

- Bearing fruit – love, kindness, patience etc (Galatians 5:22-23)

- Finishing the work that God intends us to do (this is different for everyone)

- Keep ourselves from evil

- Fulfil God’s will in your life (keep listening to Him)

- Rejoice in our salvation

This final question was “Are you glorifying God in all that you do?” What a wonderful message that I think we should all stop and think about. Are we truly doing EVERYTHING in our lives to the glory of our Lord? I honestly would have to say no and pray that my Father in heaven will continue to teach me and guide me in all that I do because nothing is worth doing if it’s not for our Lord. All this ‘stuff’ on our earth will be nothing one day so give your life to God and live it totally for Him, it’s worth any amount of gold or silver, in fact God’s love for you is priceless and you need Him!
