Acts 9:19b-31
Happy Mother’s Day to Cross Church family and to You. To those who gave birth this year to their 1st child, we celebrate with you. To those who lost a child this year, we mourn with you. To those who are in the trenches with little ones every day and wear the badge of food stains, we appreciate you. To those who experienced loss this year through miscarriage, failed adoptions, or a child that ran away, we grieve with you. To those who walk the hard path of infertility, fraught with disappointment, we walk with you. To foster moms, mentor moms, and spiritual moms, we need you. To those who have warm and close relationships with your children, we celebrate with you. To those who have disappointment, heartache, and distance from your children, we wait with you. To those who lost their mothers this year, we grieve with you. To those who were encouraged to have an abortion, we cry with you. To those who lived through driving tests, medical tests, and the overall testing of motherhood, thank you. To those who will have emptier nests in the upcoming year, we rejoice and grieve with you. And to those who are pregnant with new life, we anticipate with you. To all of you, we honor you.
‘‘The gospel is not about your accomplishments as a mother; it’s about your position as God’s daughter.’’ J.D. Greear You are honored and received not because of what you have or haven’t done as a mother, but because of what God did to make you His own.
Sermon
For our 2nd week in a row, we look again at Saul who is known as Paul. Imagine had the early 1940s newspapers read, ‘‘Hitler converts to Judaism’’ and you get a sense of how powerful Paul’s life change happened. Today, I invite you to look again at the turning point in Saul’s life for it will also serve as a turning point in your life.
