Pastor Letter for November 2024
Dear Family and Friends,
Dear Family and Friends,
Praise the Lord for the last month Spring time 2024. The beauty of November here in Sydney is purple Jacarandas and this is a good month to celebrate couples who have their marriage vows from year one to 50 or 60 plus years. We will honour God who is the covenant maker and the covenant keeper helping couples to stand before God and before our younger generations at church. Christian life is all about relationship with our creator and His creations and with one another. The great commandment says, love the Lord your God with all your heart and love your neighbour as yourself. Marriage is all about relationship to which God instituted for mankind to multiply, to rule and to keep all of His blessings in order. Marriage means a man and a woman become one in union by the blessing of God as Jesus said in Matthew 19:6 “So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
Our society is facing heart aches and disorder when we ignore what Jesus said accordingly. The consequences of not knowing or deliberately rejecting the word of Christ is pain and suffering. When one family suffers our community will suffer because we are interconnected in many ways. However, we cand be agents of hope to encourage reconciliation and harmony for all married couples. If your marriage is good praise the Lord for Jesus who helps you to go through all trials and temptations throughout these years and if you are going through difficult times seek help with Godly friends who can support you biblically and with genuine Christian care. Lets acknowledge Christ authority and purpose for our marriages, let us believe in God and believing in one another to present true hope in all relationship. Lastly lets unite in prayers and giving encouragement to focus on the Love of God who can keep us alive with agape love to be faithful until Jesus comes again. Congratulations to all married couples and stay in love without giving a chance to Satan and sin. God bless you all and have a blessed prosperous married life in Christ.
In Christ we thrive,
Shane khin (Pastor Burmese Christian Church Sydney)
