Pioneer Companion Club

Yesterday the 'Pioneers' gathered again. This amazing group of seniors - numbering over 150 when they all show up - meet each week and enjoy life together.

I had the privilege of sharing a devotion with them yesterday. This happens each week, by the way; the gospel is shared. I was led to mention the $90 lottery and the impossibility of winning it - about 45 million to 1. This is contrasted by what we know for certain: God loves us, sent Jesus for us and is faithful and just to forgive us. Futher, we are confident of eternity with God if we are people of faith.

I know that I would rather bet on certainties. This "gospel" (i.e. good news) is as sure as it gets.
