This is my first blog post.  I'm not sure how often I'll get on here and update it...I'm not a technology guy at all.  I enjoy technology but I don't prioritize the time to use it very well.

Anyway, I thought I'd start with who Jesus Christ is to me.  Scripture teaches and I believe that Jesus name carries with it the power to save us from our sin, heal us from our pain, and change the game for all who believe that He is the Messiah (Acts 3:16).  The best example I can think of in Scripture is the Apostle Paul.  Before he became Paul, he was Saul.  A destroyer of life and a purveyor of evil as he worked against the cause of Christ and the mission of the early church.  Jesus comes into Saul's life (Acts 9) and everything changed.  Paul became the instrument of Jesus to carry His name to the nations.

As a non-Jewish person, I'm eternally grateful to the Lord Jesus Christ for choosing to save me (1 John 4:19) and to Paul for being obedient to go!  May the same be said of us as we grow in our faith and live lives on mission for Christ.

Who is Jesus to you?

Christ's love,

Who is Jesus to me?

But the most important question to me is that the Lord asks and answers:
"Who is Sean Lee to Me?"

Nice start on this blog, Kirk!
