Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things are passed away; behold, all things have become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17)
Итак, кто во Христе, тот новая тварь; древнее прошло, теперь все новое. (2-е Коринфянам 5:17 Russian)
Glorious and Almighty God, our Dear Father in Heaven ~ Thank you for the immense blessings provided by your providential care on this new day. Give all Christians – in particular the new babes in Christ, the wisdom and courage we all need in order to realize the magnitude of our salvation that was made possible by that spectacular act of love at Golgotha long ago. Help us to talk and walk as the new people we are because of our obedience to the Gospel message. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
Yesterday (Monday) we had some time to make an effort at getting caught up on some office details that have been going without attention for a couple of weeks. While we were involved in this we noticed a woman peep in the door of our office/meeting place. Then, she decided to walk on by, but chose to turn around and come in to speak with us. Tatyana is a book sales agent and she showed us many beautiful books published in Moscow. We bought one small Ukrainian cook book (as if Galina needed recipes) and had a little visit with her. We gave her some of our literature and had a nice visit. We hope to meet again. We were able to appoint Saturday afternoon as a meeting time with Dima, our first English student. After others went home following our Bible study last night, Luda and Stepan wanted to stay around for some individual attention. They shared some of their concerns and we were able to answer their questions. All the people who regularly attend our meetings are very serious about knowing the truth that makes men free. This morning we are making preparations for another baptism at 11.00. Galina reminded me last night that someone needs to wash towels, clean house and prepare everything. She does so much to help with the work of spreading God's love! We finally went to sleep with joy in our hearts over these who are coming to Christ. Thank you for your prayers.
