PAIN
We struggle with the pain and chaos of life.  God is with us every minute of our life and He would that we surrender our will to Him so that He can help us navigate our life.  Jesus is the only way, and He is seeking those who are lost that they might be saved.

Now to him who is able to establish you in accordance with my gospel, the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past, 26 but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all the Gentiles might come to the obedience that comes from faith— 27 to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.

MESSAGE
The Gospel, the Lord Jesus Christ, has come, died for you and raised from the dead by our Holy God is alive and He calls you to belief in Him for life.  Real life is in Jesus Christ.  Life like the Father’s life.  Jesus is Lord. 

03/04          Romans 16:19–23

Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I rejoice because of you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil. 20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.  21 Timothy, my co-worker, sends his greetings to you, as do Lucius, Jason and Sosipater, my fellow Jews. 22 I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord. 23 Gaius, whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings. Erastus, who is the city’s director of public works, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings.

CAREFUL

Careful, evil is prowling about and we are on its menu.  When your heart is sinking turn to Jesus.  Ask Him to pick you up.  Stay in the Word.  Be about the Lord’s work.  Care for others.  Do the next right thing.   

03/03          Romans 16:15-18

Greet Philologus, Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas and all the Lord’s people who are with them. 16 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send greetings. 17 I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. 18 For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people. 

WISE

Pay attention.  When you see the folks that stir up hate and evil, avoid them.  Jesus said that we are to love one another, not to hurt each other.  

03/02          Romans 16:5-14 

Greet also the church that meets at their house. Greet my dear friend Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia. 6 Greet Mary, who worked very hard for you. 7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my fellow Jews who have been in prison with me. They are outstanding among the apostles, and they were in Christ before I was. 8 Greet Ampliatus, my dear friend in the Lord.  9Greet Urbanus, our co-worker in Christ, and my dear friend Stachys.  10 Greet Apelles, whose fidelity to Christ has stood the test. Greet those who belong to the household of Aristobulus. 11 Greet Herodion, my fellow Jew. Greet those in the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord. v12 Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, those women who work hard in the Lord. Greet my dear friend Persis, another woman who has worked very hard in the Lord. 13 Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother, who has been a mother to me, too. 14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas and the other brothers and sisters with them. 

EARLY
The early church had stalwart souls serving the Lord and risking their life as Christians.  They served in the face of death threats and martyrdom.  Today we are called to faithfulness and service.  Please serve well.  

03/01          Romans 16: 1-4 

I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon of the church in Cenchreae.  2 I ask you to receive her in the Lord in a way worthy of his people and to give her any help she may need from you, for she has been the benefactor of many people, including me. 3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my co-workers in Christ Jesus. 4They risked their lives for me. Not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them. 

PEOPLE

People count in the work of the kingdom.  Remember, people count.
