Beloved Brothers and Sisters,
Practicing the way of Jesus is not a burden—it is a joy. When we walk together in His footsteps, we discover that His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
Every act of kindness, every prayer lifted, every hand extended in love is a thread that weaves us into His great net of grace. Alone, we may feel weak, but together we shine as His body, carrying His light into the world.
Do not grow weary. The Lord sees your faithfulness. He delights in your unity, and He strengthens you for every step. Remember: “Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not” (Galatians 6:9).
Keep practicing His way, keep walking together, and keep trusting that the harvest will be greater than you can imagine.
BE WITH JESUS
To be with Jesus is the heart of our faith. It is not about rushing or striving, but about resting in His presence. When we pause, listen, and open our hearts, we discover that He is already near—guiding, comforting, and strengthening us.
Being with Jesus means:
Abiding in His Word
Letting Scripture shape our thoughts and renew our minds.
Walking in His Spirit
Trusting His guidance in both small steps and great journeys.
Resting in His Love
Knowing we are fully accepted, forgiven, and cherished.
Sharing His Heart
Extending His compassion to others, so they too may feel His nearness.
Remember His promise: “I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).
You are never alone. In joy and in trial, Jesus is with you. Practicing His way together is simply learning to notice His presence, and to walk in step with Him day by day.
BECOME LIKE JESUS
To become like Jesus is the greatest calling of our lives. It is not about perfection, but transformation. Day by day, as we walk with Him, His Spirit shapes us into His likeness.
In Humility
Jesus washed the feet of His disciples. We become like Him when we serve others with gentleness.
In Compassion
Jesus wept with those who wept. We become like Him when we carry the burdens of others in love.
In Obedience
Jesus said, “Not my will, but Yours be done.” We become like Him when we surrender our plans to the Father.
In Forgiveness
Jesus forgave even those who crucified Him. We become like Him when we release bitterness and extend grace.
The journey is slow, but it is sure. As Paul reminds us: “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
Take courage—every step of faith, every act of love, every moment of surrender is shaping you into His likeness. Together, as His body, we reflect His beauty to the world.
