daily prayer

   Good morning! How are we faithing? Do you feel sometimes you have no effect on anything or anybody for our savior? Do you understand the Word that tells us to "be ready in season and out of season"? Do you realize the most minuscule event can have far reaching effects? Stepping forward with a kind word regardless of what flies at us can actually have long reaching effects on the receiver. Many a time a forgiving spirit and and eye turned to God will transform a life and at a minimum, contribute to that transformation. We do not know how our actions and words can hinder or help others in their time of need therefore actions and reactions must be based on Godlike love and wisdom. We may not notice the need but we must recognise that they may exist whenever we encounter people of all walks of life. The wisdom, patience, love we receive from the Word is to be applied in what we do, say and how we act. Kat and I were privileged to witness ,as the Word says, the planting of a seed, the  watering of it a time or two and then saw a harvest for the Father. We didn't even realize it till another soul in a similar situation was encountered. Only after it took place was the realization that this had happened before came to mind. Our focusing on a daily walk with Jesus is what we need to concentrate on because if we walked looking for results immediately in witnessing we would loose focus from the love of God back to deeds and forget that deeds are a result of our peace and salvation and not how to earn it. Seeing a repentant heart and seeing them receive that peace and salvation sure is an encouragement for sharing the Word but the reason we share is because of what Jesus has done for us and we just cannot contain that love. Genuine charity is a God given gift that runs deep inside and it cannot help but flow out and when we get to that wonderful point of recognising souls and desire to direct them to God the immediate desire to see results fades somewhat because their journey is theirs and not ours so encouragement and genuine love is how we present this wonderful life walking with God. The next time you encounter anyone, even someone who is irritating the snot out of you, remember where you were once...

2 Timothy 4

“Preach the Word”

 ¹ I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: ² preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction. ³ For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, ⁴ and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths. ⁵But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.




Remember Mike and Natalie...
