First Baptist Danville Indiana - Pointing People To Christ

FROSTED…

Friday, February 12th, 2010

This morning we woke up to one of the most beautiful landscapes I can remember. There’s a layer of frosting on every limb of every tree! It’s a surreal scene. It’s the kind of beauty that’s hard to describe or completely digest! It makes me want to sing with the song writer in Psalm 98…”Sing to the Lord a new song, for He has done marvelous things!”

But frost is cosmetic. By noon is will likely melt. And it will be back to the dull colors of a Midwest winter.

Jesus can change a life at the deepest level turning it a beautiful that is beyond description. He can do it in a moment! And when He changes a life it goes way beyond cosmetic! He is about internal/eternal soul transformation (2 Cor.3.18; 4.16-18)! And He uses things as odd as a frozen cloud to create beauty out of our messed up lives…things like big problems.

Sunday we’ll be celebrating the incredible gift of life transformation through faith in Christ. If you’re in the area I hope you can join us!

Forever FROSTED by His grace!

Your brother,

Jon
