down from the mountain


well, you're home and school starts next week so, where do you go from here? i was reminded of a story in the bible before christ's crucifixion. three of the disciples, peter, james and john, went up the mountain with jesus and while they were there jesus was transfigured ( which means that his heavenly glory appeared) and moses and elijah appeared. peter said, " i have a great idea, let's build three shrines and stay here!" then a voice from heaven said, "this is my son, listen to him!" good advice : ) jesus told them that they couldn't stay there, basically they had work to do! you know what happened when he and the disciples came down off the mountain? jesus healed a young boy!

as much as we wish we could have stayed at m-fuge jesus has work for us to do! what does he have for you to do? we got rid of a stumbling block tonight at youth bible study. be in much prayer about what he wants you to do. remember that moses said yes to god and he used him in such a mighty way! god uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things!

you've been to the mountaintop now it's time to get to work!!

God bless you : )
