Bethany Presbyterian Church Chat May-June-July 2024

May-June-July 2024 

When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I am saved" I'm whispering "I get lost!" "That is why I chose this way." When I say..."I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need someone to be my guide. When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak and pray for strength to carry on. When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed and cannot ever pay the debt. When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect, my flaws are too visible but God believes I'm worth it. When I say..."I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain I have my share of heartaches which is why I seek His name. When I say..."I am a Christian" I do not wish to judge. I have no authority. I only know I'm loved. 

This is the Season of Eastertide. It is a time to contemplate the impact that Easter has on each of our lives. What kind of Christian does the Easter message make us? From Easter to Pentecost is fifty days; fifty days to ponder, fifty days to reorder our priorities according to the Mission of Jesus Christ. Who might say at the end of these fifty days, “What a difference you made in my life!” - as a church, as indi-viduals? 

Lovingly, 

Pastor Katie
