Transfiguration Sunday is an interesting celebration. We harken back to Moses on Mt. Sinai, speaking face to face with God and Jesus being transfigured before Peter, James, and John, with Moses and Elijah on a mountain top.
[Jesus] was transfigured before them, and His clothes became radiant, intensely white, as no one on earth could bleach them.
Mark 9:2b-3
When Moses was in God’s presence, he radiated God’s glory. People couldn’t help but notice the difference that enveloped him. – And they didn’t like it! They didn’t want to hear from Moses – at least not directly. They feared the change. They tried to put off the messenger.
Peter, James, and John didn’t have that same reaction. Rathen than be put-off, they were confounded and confused. They didn’t know how to react to this transformation and or understand what it really meant.
So here’s a question: with whom do we identify? Are we like the Israelites, who fear the glory of God and only somewhat reluctantly follow Him out of fear? Are we like the three apostles who are happy to do something but really no idea what or why? Or are we like Moses, who went to commune with God, listen to Him, and carry His message, His radiance, His glory to those around – regardless of how they may take it?
The fact is, through faith in Jesus we are joined to Him; the One who was transfigured; the One who transfigures us! We are changed, forever! We have His Message of Salvation! We have His glory! We shine with His radiance!
Others should see that! It should have an impact on all those we encounter! We have been saved by the Light of the world, and we are to shine like starts with Him; always!
May we be bold in that calling, and always point to Jesus through it all, so that His saving glory may show the Way to a people still in darkness!
Shine on and through us, O Lord!

Yes, I know we’ve been around for over a decade, so “why a ribbon cutting now?” I hear you say.
LifeBridge joined the Greater Sealy Area Chamber of Commerce on November 9, 2023. They like to have a Ribbon Cutting to welcome new chamber members, create fellowship, let people know more about their new members, etc.
LifeBridge’s Ribbon Cutting will take place on Monday, February 26, 2024, at 11:00 AM.
We hope you’ll join us and celebrate with us!
I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.

LifeBridge has a wonderful problem: We have several people who are being called to go on Mission Trips this year!
That’s fantastic news! But mission trips cost money.
You can help spread the saving Gospel of Jesus by helping these called people as they go, share, and serve!
You can make a tax-deductible donation by selecting the “Missions” drop down for your online donations or writing “Missions” on your check.
Some are Called to go. Some are Called to help. But all are Called. Which are you?
Hark, the voice of Jesus calling,
“Who will go and work today?”
Fields are ripe and harvests waiting,
Who will bear the sheaves away?
Long and loud the Master calls us,
Rich reward He offers free;
Who will answer, gladly saying,
“Here am I, send me, send me?”Let none hear you idly saying,
Hymn: “HARK, THE VOICE OF JESUS CALLING,” stanzas 1 and 6
“There is nothing I can do.”
While the lost of earth are dying,
And the Master calls for you;
Take the task He gives you gladly;
Let His work your pleasure be;
Answer quickly when He calls you,
“Here am I, send me, send me.”

The scale of creation is truly beyond understanding. It boggles the mind. From the smallest to largest and everything in between. From the intricacies of our being to the faculties of understanding. It is astounding and surpasses all understanding.
Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; His understanding is beyond measure.
Psalm 147:5
The One who breathes out stars and knits life together in the smallest detail. Who sets the heavens in motion and lays out the seasons in their time. Who creates cells more complicated than rockets and lays out galaxies in their beauty.
This is the God we serve! Beyond astronomical!
And yet the most amazing things we consider is not that He determines and names the stars, but that He gathers outcasts, heals the brokenhearted, and bind up our wounds. It is not in the incomprehension of His power, but in that of His pleasure in those who love and fear Him! It is that the same God who created and sustains everything sent His Son, incarnate, to save us so that we could dwell with Him forever!
Amazing! Utterly and unfathomably amazing!
