“Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. 3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘LetContinue reading “Get That Log Out”

Gimme 5
My sister’s pastor said in his sermon a few weeks ago that when someone asks you to give them 5, you say these 5 points. Wait faithfully. Rise and thank God for food (Matthew 14:19), salvation (1 Peter 1:3-5) and also for everything we have (Ephesians 5:20). Pray expectantly (Hebrews 4:16).

Focus
Let’s show others what a life completely surrendered to the Lord can bring. Let’s be the functioning ones in a world of disfunction, the hopeful ones in a world full of hopelessness, the loving ones in a world full of selfishness. We need to truly embody Christ in our words and thoughts, and actions.
Forgive Yourself
Whom the Son has set free is free indeed. Lord, whenever this thing comes up again in my thoughts, help me to speak to it, in Jesus name, and let it know it is under the blood and Christ has forgiven me and given me the power to forgive myself. Lord God, please loose the power of forgiveness in my mind over this matter. I agree with Your word, which says, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
