From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.” ~ Matthew 4:17 We learn here that Jesus began His ministry where John the Baptist left off when he was arrested and murdered (later) – – giving a message of repentance. We cannot know the salvation of Jesus without repentance. We must realize that we need saving before we can be saved (think similar to alcoholics). Jesus came to save us from ourselves. He came to save us for eternity. Paul tells us in I Timothy 1:15b “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners”. Have you gone to Jesus for forgiveness and salvation? If not, what is holding you back? Jesus came to give us abundant life (John 10:10)!

Blaine began his day installing a new microwave we picked up at Lowe’s yesterday. Ours died the other day. He did a masterful job of researching, so the new one fit perfectly and the installation was a breeze – just a little heavy. 😊

That’s good, because although his 77-mile drive wasn’t horrible, we didn’t go the way he originally intended. Just yesterday, he commented that he was glad he didn’t have to drive the motorhome through historic Savannah.

Guess what? The gps changed its mind and all of a sudden, he had no choice. Scary stuff! But at least traffic was moving at a slow pace, and we emerged with our side-view mirrors and other parts intact, although we had one really close call on the driver’s side mirror!
