ESSAGE OF

HOPE…

PHILIPPIANS 4:13“I can do all things through

Christ who strengthens me.”

GALATIONS 2:20-21“I have been crucified with

Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved mea nd give Himself for me.”

ROMANS 6:5-11“Since we have been united with him in

his death, we will also be raised to life as he was. We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin. And since we died with Christ, we know we will also live with him.

ROMANS 6:5-11 NLT“We are sure of this because Christ was

raised from the dead, and he will never die again. Death no longer has any power over him. When he died, he died once to break the power of sin. But now that he lives, he lives for the glory of God. So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus.”

KING JAMES VERSION“Reckon yourself to be dead…”

YOGI BERRA

“If you don’t know where you’re going – you’ll probably end up someplace else.”

YOGI BERRA

“If you don’t know who you are in Christ – you’ll probably end up being somebody else.”
