Isaiah Part 11

We have just past the holiday known as memorial day here in the United States.  This is a time to remember the people involved in our military, law enforcment, fire fighters, and other first responders who have given their life in the service of others.  Last week we heard that how of all of GOD's creation.  That only man thinks about and understands their mortality.  With this said the teacher made the point that only mankind can be heroic!  The question is how can people of faith show honor and respect to those that have already made this sacrifice?  I think the answer is that we must do something for those that are serving in these jobs that are still with us.  Imagine if each church went to their local police department, and fire departments.  You could offer to pray for one of these people during a specific time and let them know you are praying for them.  Maybe find out something that they love to eat, or even get to know them and their families.  You could even have a service set up to give respect to them for their service.  Who knows this might be the only time they may step foot inside of your church and powerful seed could be planted into their lives?  it is easy to say I appreciate someone, but are we called to give only lip service to those that work to protect us? Think on this as we continue tonight with part 11 of our study of Isaiah.  This teacher has not disappointed us during this bible study.  We hope that you share this bible study with your friends and family. We wanted to start tonights show in looking at us as a country with words from one of our past presidents.  I pray that you think on his words as we then get back into our bible study!
