This Week @ LPC February 5, 2023

A note from Pastor Joy...

In February our sermon series will be called A Heart Like Jesus, and we’ll be talking about transformation. Transformation is the goal of our spiritual journey in Christ (Romans 8:29). Jesus meets us right where we are and offers to set us free from habits and behaviors that lead to death and gives us his life and the power to become like him (Romans 6:22-23). In the midst of daily challenges, and routines, and activities, we may not always remember that the one who began a good work within us is working to bring that work to completion (Philippians 1:6), but it’s true.

In every situation and circumstance there is an opportunity to cooperate with the Holy Spirit and when we do, we are changed. Every time we say “yes” to the influence of the Spirit, we become a little more like Jesus (Galatians 5:22-26) Transformation is not always an easy process, and not all transformations are good, but the transformation that Jesus is working out within us is a good one. We are all works in progress, and we need to give and receive grace as we are changing and being changed.
