Good morning! How are we faithing? So much on my mind today and it's all good. Seeing God work in lives is always a blessing and encouragement. Seeing people respond to the love of God always amazes me. Most times I have no idea the background, the story behind a particular person and to see them respond to God's love is just fantastic. Everyone has a story. Everyone has walked through things and as we remember that tidbit it tends to makes us listen close, watch reactions and always show love from the heart because Jesus has shown us that same love. We can't but do one thing, give that love out. We cannot contain it. Holding it in or back is sinful and selfish. We are not all preachers or whatever but our genuine love reaching out will indeed manifest itself in other lives. I know this man that I continually pray for because he has a good heart, very smart, willing to do whatever he can for someone and yet denies Christ. I see him as a huge asset to God's kingdom if he would just come. I also know him well enough to see past all the surface stuff to a heart that yearns for God's love but because of the junk, can't or wont see the truth. Man, we all know people like this and we need to pray and we also need to show love because all the preaching isn't gonna win them over, only love can.
Rom 5:8-9
But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath of God through him.
Rom 5:20-21
And the law came in besides, that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace did abound more exceedingly: that, as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Rom 5:8-9

remember the lost that we know....
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your love that trumps everything else. Lord, we need to be wise and fearless when it comes to showing genuine compassion for people. Grant us those things so as ambassadors for you we attract and not repel. Lord, forgive us our sins and bring to mind when we stray. Thank you for all you do, in Jesus name, amen
