I received a picture the other day from my brother in law which was taken when I was having some fun at Christmas back in 2007. The picture was not flattering, that is all I'm going to say, but it was the caption that he put with it that caught my attention....Keeping it real!
I knew what he meant, this goofy looking picture of myself having some fun was the real me.
We are coming to our worship service this Sunday and will celebrate Communion. This is a time to keep it real. A time to take off the masks (as if God doesn't see us as we are anyway) and participate in something that has become familiar, maybe too familiar, in our worship experience. We will focus on our theme (Connecting for Community) and have a look at the You God created you to be. It will be a good time to Keep it Real, so today as you go through life may I suggest that you slow it down a bit? Take a few moments to be real, face who you are, compare that to who God says you are, give thanks to God for His grace and love and see what you can do for someone else around you. As ambassadors of Jesus Christ...we need to Keep it Real!
Blessings,
Pastor Brian
