"The text is 1 Corinthians 1:4-5. Paul wrote this letter in Ephesus to the church in Corinth. Corinth was one of the largest cities in the Roman world and also one of the most corrupt and sinful. Paul is reminding them, that as Christians, God has already changed their hearts. (Romans 6:1-14; Galatians 5:22-25) The blessings they received should not be minimized, denied or abused.

"Psalm 139 verses 3 and 4 are especially fitting for welcoming a new baby or celebrating a child’s birthday. Thanks be to our God for his amazingly intricate and precious creative work. All 24 verses of Psalm 139 are packed with inspiring insights into God’s love, nature, and work. God has deep knowledge of us; we are fully known by him because he made us. We are never alone. We are wonderfully made. The psalmist, overwhelmed with God’s love and work, wants to honor and serve him. Verses 23 and 24 are perhaps the best known."

"The focus of this work is the text from Matthew 5:16, part of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus is teaching the crowds; they just heard the beatitudes and this section tells about being salt and light.
