That will be nice...thank you MLK! LOL!

I don’t get a day off for it. I have a ticket to go see
the Bushes when they come to Midland for their Welcome Home
event! So I am happy about that!

I just want to help to honor them. With all the negative rhetoric he has endured, it will be good for them to come
here and get some positive feedback from people who love him!

Brotherhood Of The Sea

READ: Ephesians 2:14-22

Now, therefore, you are . . . fellow citizens with the saints. —Ephesians 2:19

On August 8, 2005, the world learned of the dramatic rescue of seven Russian sailors trapped in a small sub entangled in a fishing net. The men had survived 3 cold, dark days on the bottom of the ocean and had less than 6 hours of oxygen left. Meanwhile, up above, a frantic, unified rescue effort by Russian, Japanese, British, and American personnel was underway. Finally, the sub was freed. The Russian Defense Minister praised the operation, saying, “We have seen in deeds, not in words, what the brotherhood of the sea means.”

The book of Ephesians talks about the unity of believers in Jesus by referring to the oneness of “the household of God” (2:19). The Gentiles, who were once “aliens” and “strangers” (v.12), had now been “brought near by the blood of Christ” (v.13), uniting them with their Jewish brothers and sisters. This unity is to permeate the efforts of the Christian community today.

Believers in Jesus are commissioned to undertake the most important rescue effort. People are dying without Christ. Praise God that united mission efforts are bringing hope, salvation, education, and relief to desperate people around the world. That’s what the brotherhood of Christ is all about.

In Christ there is no East or West,
In Him no South or North,
But one great fellowship of love
Throughout the whole wide earth. —Oxenham

A healthy church is the best witness to a hurting world.

Bible in One Year: Genesis 41-42; Matthew 12:1-23
