In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. __Genesis 1:1-31

Have you ever shopped in a large hardware store? Some of the larger hardware stores have any tool you could ever possibly think of using. In fact, they probably have many tools you never even thought of using. Whatever work you want to do, they have tools for, whether it be laying tile, fixing a clogged sink, or planting a garden.

Of course, no matter how good a tool is, it’s useless unless we know how to use it and have the ability to use it. If you hand me a sledgehammer, I may know how to use it, but I wouldn’t be strong enough to lift it. Other tools I wouldn’t even know how to use.

Hardware stores are great places to find tools for physical work, but where do we get the tools for doing spiritual work?

Instead of planting a garden, let’s say I need to plant seeds of truth in a friend’s heart. Or instead of fixing a sink, I need to fix a broken relationship. The wonderful news is that God gives us the tools to do any spiritual work He may ask us to do. Not only that, but God also gives us the knowledge and ability to use these tools.

Sometimes we see someone doing some great spiritual work, and we think, “I could never do that.” We need to realize we can do anything that God calls us to do. Do you think God would call someone to be a pastor without giving him the tools to do the work? Would God call you to do anything without giving you the tools? No, He wouldn’t.

When God asked Moses to lead the Israelites across the Red Sea, He gave him the tools to do the job, the knowledge needed to do the job, and the ability to do the job. God didn’t just lead Moses to the Red Sea and tell him, “Okay Moses, here’s the Red Sea. I want you to cross it but it’s totally up to you to figure out how.”

In whatever spiritual work God calls you to do, go to Him in prayer and ask Him for the tools and ability to do it. With God’s help, we can “abound in every good work.”

He Has Risen! He Has Risen Indeed!!!

He breathes new life, so that we can live…free. You can try to bury Power, but it won’t stay there. You can try to bury Truth, but it is not dead. You can try to bury Love, but it cannot be contained. Jesus not dead, and we’re not alone. Not ever..... He Lives!!!!

As we approach Easter this year, what if we put remembrance into practice and made it a daily discipline? Like the story of Jesus’ birth that we celebrate at Christmas, the account of Jesus’ death and resurrection has become so familiar to many of us that we might skim over the details and rush through the emotions and the key moments of the story. Sadly, because the death and resurrection of Jesus is central to our faith and therefore quite familiar, we might even be tempted to take this beautiful and true story for granted. May it never be so.

Let’s fight that temptation and tendency this year. This Easter season is a perfect time to create a regular rhythm of remembrance.

•Remember the Reality of Sin •Remember the Grace and Mercy of God.
