First in a four week series on the Ten Commandments.
Exodus 19 speaks of God establishing a covenant, a promise, with his people; his sons and daughters. That’s relationship. Our identity is given to us freely by God.

Gratitude
Spend five minutes focusing on a couple of things you appreciate and thank God for them.
Word
Revelation 22:1-5
Then the angel showed me a river with the water of life, clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 It flowed down the center of the main street. On each side of the river grew a tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit,[a] with a fresh crop each month. The leaves were used for medicine to heal the nations.
3 No longer will there be a curse upon anything. For the throne of God and of the Lamb will be there, and his servants will worship him. 4 And they will see his face, and his name will be written on their foreheads. 5 And there will be no night there—no need for lamps or sun—for the Lord God will shine on them. And they will reign forever and ever. (NLT)

When Jesus tells us to join him (“take my yoke”), we know we are living our lives with him working through us when we are joyful, kind, gentle…
So, when he says we will work with him and reign with him for eternity, we get a clue about eternal life being more than sitting around, relaxing, and getting lots of rest. There are things we will be doing together.

Recent news accounts about this “crisis” in the newer generations when it comes to being active in their faith has everyone scrambling for explanations.
Besides the fact that surveys always depend on how you ask the question and what the questions are, and how the questions are understood, there is someone else who might have a differing opinion on all of this…His initials are H.S.
The family of Jesus thought he was out of his mind. How about your family? For that matter, who is your family?
Jesus brings a new perspective…
