The One Who Serves

"For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But I am among you as the one who serves." Luke 26:27

Intentionally Spiritually Minded: I have set the LORD continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely. Psalm 16:8-9    Justified by faith in Jesus: Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ... Romans 5:1

Love Happens On the Way

Why aren't sinners drawn by the thousands to church? If they are, why do religious people label the church as "worldly". I don't think we should draw people with gimmicks, or water down the truth to make them comfortable. I think we should love them. I think the genuine love of the father that is placed in our hearts will draw them, just like Jesus did. They are drawn by his Spirit, not our actions.

Don’t Stress The Process

Stop worrying you're not where you're supposed to be. God knows where you are and where you were going to be by now. He still chose you. Its his time, not our time. Quit stressing. He said his yoke is easy and his burden is light. If what we are carrying ain't easy, we may be carrying something we aren’t meant to. Relax and trust God. He's got this.

Deception steals your identity and complicates simplicity.

If knowing the truth is what sets you free, deception is what binds you. Deception is the only tool the enemy had at the beginning and with it, he stole the dominion of the world and introduced complexity into a relationship designed for simplicity.

"Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love. "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. "These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full. "This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you." John 15:9-12

Tambra-See what is within, what looks like love, what looks like Jesus.

Aaron-"But go and learn what [this] means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance." Mat 9:13 NKJV

Speak Life: Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. Proverbs 18:21 

Don't deem  yourself unworthy to receive the gift of eternal life.
