SEASON THEME: Relentless & Resilient SEASON TEXT: Romans 8:37-39
THEME OF THE WEEK: "Relentless & Resilient" -- Lights
Text: Isaiah 12:4-6-- Read the whole beautiful chapter "And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted. Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth. Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee."
One of our number one goals each XC season as a team involved in a recreational activity is to let our light shine. When we are with our own teammates, but even more so when we are around others throughout the season at meets. As Christians we ought to be thinking about this in everything we say and do throughout our lives. Others are watching and we hope that they will see Jesus in us. Our annual home XC meet is this week Saturday at our school, so what a great opportunity we have to do this. To help make CCHS and our community a place where the light of Jesus is shining. A place where the other teams and fans had fun, felt welcomed, and were served. A place where there were many smiles, positive attitudes, and energy. A place where the experience was so awesome that they want to keep coming back and look forward to coming back too.
Our text this week gives us some really good energetic thoughts about being lights of Jesus. The first few verses tell us why we should desire to be. Our God who we deserved to be angry with us, instead turned his anger away and Relentlessly & Resiliently loved us in Jesus. Freely He has showered upon us unending blessings and given us full and complete Salvation in Him! This thought should then thrill us so much they we should desire to overflow with thanks and joy in our lives. Jesus in us should bubble forth in everything we say and do. We would want everyone else to see and know this Jesus and everything about Him too! So now in our verses, this how that should look. It says we would want to talk about Him and sing about Him to whoever will listen. There would be a joy and energy in us that should make us want to "cry out and shout" about Him. We would very really never want to stop!! Praise God, for is with us and He is in us!
Our challenge and encouragement then this week and through the remainder of this XC season is to be bright lights of Jesus. That our Savior would overflow out of us wherever we go and in whatever we do or say. May our God give us the grace, the strength, and the power to do this in every part of our lives.
