Members and Friends of Austin Mennonite Church I pray you are enriched by our journey with Jesus toward the revelation of God's glory. Our observation of Jesus this week liberates us at the very core of our being. Jesus is in Jerusalem preparing to disclose the truth which identifies him as God's word to the world. In nature we routinely observe this same process. Everything in the creation naturally follows an unfolding progression that eventually brings to the surface an internal design; ..everything except the human creature. Human beings alone seem to be capable of intentionally deviating from this internal design. Jesus is an exception. Following him means trusting God's design: generating courage to live consistently the vision of life that is within us. These thoughts will compose the sermon for this next Sunday, 'Consistency as the pathway to discovery.' Daylight savings time begins early Sunday morning. 'Spring forward' one hour on Saturday evening. We will share our community meal together this Sunday at noon. May it go well with you. Sincerely, Garland Robertson ...always hold firmly to the thought that each one of us can do something to bring some portion of misery to an end
