Jesus is important

The following e-devotion was first shared in August of 2020. It remains true and strong today.

Colossians 3:3-4 NLT

But Jesus deserves far more glory than Moses, just as a person who builds a house deserves more praise than the house itself. 4 For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.

Jesus is more important than anyone or anything else. There I said it.

This is not a popularity contest or a shouting match to get the most attention. This is not a protest or a political statement. Simply I acknowledge that my relationship with the one true and living God is the most important thing. And it always will be.

If we could just for a moment focus on what matters, it might make more sense of all that is going on around the world. Please know that this is not a statement to be controversial. In fact this is just a statement of worship AND of worry.

Jesus is the most important.

No matter who is president, Jesus is still God and the only way to heaven.

Not matter the presence of the cancer or some other sickness or addiction, Jesus is still the help, hope and healer.

No matter the path of a storm or the impact left behind, Jesus is still peace and His presence is real.

For a few minutes today focus on the truth that Jesus is the most important.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns. One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns. When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her. Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved. Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?" Beverly said, "Why yes I do." Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation. We come to Friday. The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good? Jesus was treated as a criminal. He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him. His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure. That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the Passion of the Christ . Yet it is a good day. It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart. What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me: He is Redemption and Redeemer He too our Pain and Punishment He is our Righteousness and Reality He is the Savior and Life All of those happened from the cross. It was meant for the worst lawbreakers. It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law. It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus. Look
