“Others-to test him-asked him for a SIGN from heaven” Luke 11:16




Often-faith doesn't come easy-our modern day minds DEMAND scientific proof-SOMETIMES-we are tempted to put God in a box and only call him out when necessary-but OUR GOD is a mystery and doesn't work that way


OUR FAITH is a mystery because the only way that we can build faith is by FIRST stepping out in love-thereby building our faith-and by finding GOD'S LOVE in the face-heart-and hands of those around us


DEAR LORD-help me/help us to be a sign of faith and love for others in today's world


it is A GREAT DAY to be ALIVE in GOD'S LOVE for us and a great day to be A SIGN OF LOVE for others in today's world

I NEED A SIGN


2000 years ago
Jesus was healing the sick
Making the crippled walk
Helping the blind see
Letting the deaf hear
Performing miracle after miracle


And yet
It wasn’t enough


The people of his day
Wanted a sign


Jesus’ response,
“A wicked and adulterous generation
Asks for a miraculous sign
But none will be given to you
Except the sign of Jonah”


Jonah was a prophet
And had to spend 3 days and 3 nights
In he belly of a fish
To rescue he Ninevite people


What about us today
We want a sign
That God exists
We want scientific proof/evidence


What about the sign
That Jesus
Was crucified, died, and was buried
What about the sign
That 3 days later
Jesus overcame death


What about
That sign


What about the sign
Of your very own life
How do you know
That if someone else
Was given a chance
That they might have worshiped God
A 1000 times better


God loves you
God loves me
With an infinite love


Every day
Is a gift from God
Every day
Is a day freshly minted
For you and me


A day with unlimited potential
A day with unlimited possibilities
A day with unlimited opportunity


What if today
Is the only day
That we are ever going to have
What are you
What am I
Going to do with it


You have life
You have GOD’S LOVE
We have eyewitness testimony
Of Christ’s victory
Over death


I CALL THAT 3 SIGNS
