We live in a world of impressions.  It is a world of senses that send signals to our minds and cause a response.  Advertisers study to know how to make the impression of need or want and steer us toward the only product that can fill that need.  Act now and get two for the price of one. God gave us the ability to be directed, to make decisions by our impressions.  It can be a positive or a negative thing.  Our wills are involved.  When the serpent asked Eve  " did God say . . ?", he was in this way asking Eve what her impressions of God's  love, care and sovereignty were.  Eve what will you do?

As Christians we should be guided by a certain set of impres-sions.  It's more than a doctrinal study.  One doctrine tells us there is a God and He is sovereign.  As with Eve we must decide to trust His love, His care and His Lord- ship.  Can He, will He take charge and take care of us?  This doctrine says yes and this teaching  has come directly from God's Word.  What we say and do about what we know, comes from our impression of what is real and is in our best interest. God has always been there for us. " I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread. They are always generous and lend freely; their children will be blessed".   Psalm  37:25, 26.   The impression of the psalmist tells of God's care and His rewards for those that follow Him.

God has ways of making lasting impressions on us.   The sermons we hear, the direction of the life we lead, all the inputs to our senses even the station we listen to each day can be used by God to direct us successfully.

A recent song we played brought me up short and made me rethink my day and attitude.  I had to stop and get alone with God for a minute to adore Him and apologize and let Him melt and remold my straying heart.  God is awesome.  He can steer your life through a statement from a sermon, a song or a even a simple smile.  Impressions that tell you He cares.

WCIF is in the ministry of impressions.  The nearly 200 songs you hear each day are meant to be more than background although they can be used in that way as well.  With more than twenty speakers each day you're sure to find some that reach you on your level.  Some will reach you in a minute, others will teach you in up to a half hour.  It is all about being more like Jesus so we can live triumphantly though our circumstances as well as focus on the needs of others. Want people to see God in light of your life?  Let your light shine brightly by doing good works.  Make an impression.
