Rekindle

Last week, the theme was “Commit”.  As a project, we were challenged to commit to something.  Whether that was having a spiritual conversation with a coworker, a quiet time with the Lord every day, or contacting a friend from home and asking them about their beliefs, students made commitments and took steps of faith.

This week, the theme is “Rekindle”.  Some of us are becoming too comfortable.  Some of us are just going through the motions.  Our focus this week is to earnestly seek Christ, to bring our focus back to the cross, or in other words, DO WORK!  We need to remember our purpose and why we are here.  The Gospel is God’s gift to us and needs to be our motivation not only for this week, but for the rest of our lives.  Jeremiah 20:9 says, “…his word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones.”

We are past the halfway mark of project and it is easy to lose our focus and become tired; however, there is power in the Gospel.  Through it, we are able to renew our strength and regain our focus, rekindling our fire for the glory of God.
