Good morning! How are we faithing? Multi tasking this morning. So many things rolling around this fat head of mine. All 17 brain cells at full capacity.
We as believers must pay attention to our own walk with God and not anyone elses. That being said we can press on to the prize that awaits us with the Father. I am concerned for my fellow believers and their behavior but their behavior is not my gig. I cannot judge, belittle, berate, point fingers or talk about their misdeeds except to them directly and I cannot talk to them directly with those aforementioned ways. Admonishment is meant for our brothers and sisters not for a slap down but to help them grow in the Lord. Too many times we become condescending and that only breeds animosity. Pastors talking about other Pastors and their sins to people and not in a manner fitting one in that position infuriates me. Christians talking about other Christians because they disagree with how they do church or how they dress or the like shows the world everything but the love of God. It all boils down to where the focus is and we are not focusing where we ought to when we do those things. Every situation has root causes and the outward appearance may not be what it appears. When and how did any of us get the idea we had a lock on everything? The only absolute truth is the Word and anything humans jack with is fallible and at some point will fail so lets get over ourselves and press on with the admonitions the Lord has given us.
Psa 16:11
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Luk 24:46-47
And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Jud 1:24-25
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
remember Josh and Tiff....remember Brian Jett...
Heavenly Father,
Bless our endeavors today. Help us see truth and to act courageously and not with self pride. Bless the children that they learn our good qualities. Lord we ask for wisdom to speak, act according to your will. Lord we praise you this day. Open our eyes to the truth in your Word. In Jesus name we pray, amen
