When God gives a spirit of grace it leads us to a place of repentance and restoration. From it, and through Him, flows a cleansing fountain of living water. Have you been to the fountain? Do you need to return?
God loves you for who you are. He has not chosen you because of your effort or because you've done anything important, but simply because He LOVES you.
Serving isn't just an act, it is a lifestyle. It happens in the rhythms of life. What would it look like if we all took a posture of humility and adopted an attitude of "I'm here to serve"?
How can you become a better listener? What does it look like for you to sit with others patiently and lovingly? How can you take ownership of what's around you? This means giving up the right to complain about the mess in our world and serve it instead.
When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. / Psalm 34:17-18
As we spend more time at home, take time to spend more time in God's Word, reflect on the fruit your life is producing and dwell on the idea that the Lord is watching over you. (See Psalm 1)
The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:2
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me. Psalm 138:7
Doing good is never enough to get into Heaven. Believing in Jesus and therefore following Him with your entire life is. #redletterchallenge#BRfamily#RLC
The moment we give our lives to Jesus is the moment we give up the right to complain about the mess in the world and start to serve it instead. #RLC#redletterchallenge#BRfamily#serve
Dietrich Bonhoeffer said, "Often a person can be helped merely by having someone who will listen to him seriously." At times what our neighbor needs most is for someone else to know their story. #RLC#redletterchallenge#BRfamily#serve
Good listening goes hand-in-hand with the mindset of Christ. It flows from a humble heart that counts others more significant than ourselves. #RLC#redletterchallenge#BRfamily#serve
