Who Are You?

We can be our own worst enemy. This is not only people who do not follow God but also for the faith community. I was watching as a person was having a rather heated argument with a loved one and then the phone rang, and the person went all Dr Jeckyl and sounded like the nicest person on the earth. There was something wrong with this as the other person just stood there on the verge of tears wondering what had just happened. Some feel as though they can put on a mask of pureness and be perceived as kind and gentle, but the pureness must come from the heart.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Matt 5:8

For the Christian community, the pureness of the heart comes from the blessing of Christ in their lives. When we ask Christ to reside in our hearts, there is a peace and a calm that permeates our being and a lifestyle change that comes from the joy that settles in. God knows the heart and sees past the masks yet there are so many who believe they can fool the King of kings. Do people truly believe that if they are having a meltdown on someone in the church because they didn’t get their own way and Jesus shows up on the scene they can put on that mask and fool the Son of God? Give up the mask and let the Love of God fill you to all the fullness of righteousness and you will see the world in a new light and others will see you in the Light.

This Sunday we continue in the Beatitudes. Service starts at 10:30 MST and can be seen live on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/MainAvenueFellowship/) or viewed afterwards on our website (www.mainavefellowship.blogspot.ca).
