Invitation to GGWO Convention 2008
by Pastor Tom Schaller
Ecclesiastes 9:15 speaks of a poor little wise man who delivered a city. His wisdom brought
safety. Sadly, that sense of safety fostered familiarity and soon the little wise man − and his
words of wisdom − were forgotten.
We cannot afford to forget the Wise One, Jesus Christ, who delivered us from the power of
sin and death through the Cross of Calvary. He must be lifted up. His words have to take
precedence in our hearts and minds. His Cross is what we must look to. It must be our
reference point.
Matthew 6:21 says, "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." How do we
see the Cross of Christ? Is it our treasure? Our hearts should go there often and see Jesus
and recognize His call of grace and purpose upon our lives. The Cross: It is where mercy
and truth met together, where righteousness and peace kissed each other. It is the source
of true riches. The Cross makes all the difference between a life lived for God and a life just
lived.
Join us in Baltimore, June 23-29, when we will celebrate the Cross and all that it means for
us. We greatly anticipate a time of rejoicing and refreshment and renewal, as we set our
minds on our Savior, our Deliverer, our Wisdom.
