Turning Point April 30 / Weekend Edition

Today's Devotional: April 30 Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory. 1 Peter 1:8 Recommended Reading: 1 Peter 4:7-11 It’s that time of year when we begin to put away the accumulation of things we have had in our homes during the winter—the space heaters and extra blankets, and even our sweaters and heavy coats can be moved out of sight as we prepare for spring. Whether it is dusting off our shutters and blinds, washing our windows, or just taking a walk to enjoy the fresh air, the change in season seems to call for a change in us as well. For seasons occur not only on the calendar but also in our lives. With the springtime comes the reminder to begin anew and to look for fresh opportunities to serve the Lord. There isn’t an abundance of encouragement in our world today, so if you can find a place where you can bless those around you, take that opportunity to make a difference. There is joy in serving the Lord! I have found the joy no tongue can tell, how its waves of glory roll! It is like a great o’erflowing well springing up within my soul. It is joy unspeakable and full of glory! Barney E. Warren
