We are living in a world when changes are taking place almost hourly, nothing stays the same, the financial market is in turmoil, every day we hear of killings on our streets, floods throughout the world, famine in many parts of Africa, India and China, here at home, uncertainity for people who are employed.  Many are fearful for the future.

In these uncertain times for the Christian, though we may be concerned about these daily happenings, our future is secure.

We have a God who is unchanging, for He says in His Word "I am the Lord, I change not" Malachi 3:6. We have a Saviour who is unchanging, the writer to the Hebrews tells us that "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever" Hebrews 13:8.

As Christians we have a duty to share this wonderful news with all we come in contact with, that they too will come to trust in the Saviour for themselves.  We dare not keep the good news to ourselves, souls are dying in the world around us, let us go into all the world and preach the Gospel by the lives we live.  It was said of Peter and John when they faced their accusers, that "they marvelled and they took knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus" Acts 4:13.  May others see Jesus in us.

Wishing you joy in the Lord.

Yours faithfully
