daily prayer

        Good morning! How are we faithing? Everyone you see today, God wants them to come to repentance.  Everyone you see today has the gift of grace available to them.  With that in mind, approach everyone you encounter with the same love and understanding that came to you when you found the gift of pardon.  Be willing to share how Jesus died for them just like for us because God loves that person just like he loves you. Ever met someone who is militant about their unbelief? I sure have but you know what? So was the Apostle Paul. With that tidbit of info it causes me to not judge those who don't believe but to be who Jesus teaches us to be.  We cannot take the chance because we are butt hurt to cause someone to miss the gift of pardon so when that person has gotten under your skin today and you are ready to slap the taste out of their mouth, remember who you are and who our savior is and how you and I found truth.


2Pe 3:9
 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.


1Ti 2:1-4
  I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men; 
 for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity. This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;  who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.


2Co 5:17-20
  Wherefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new. But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation; to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation.  We are ambassadors therefore on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beseech you on behalf of Christ, be ye reconciled to God. 


remember the Wheatleys...remember the Lewis family...


Heavenly Father,
  Thank you for this gift of salvation.  Help us see truth and not fear man.  Help us be wise with our words so you are seen.  Forgive us our sins for they are many, In Jesus name, amen
