Life and death are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. (Proverbs 18:21)
An effective father is one who is a godly man. His commitment to his family is seen in his vital relationship with God, his godly character and the time and energy he gives to his wife and children.
The most powerful evangelistic tool in the world is not a program, a special service, a booklet or a flashy presentation. It’s a group of people who live what they say they believe. Worshipping Jesus, loving each other & caring 4 their community. In other words, a healthy church.
The day we hold people captive to their worst mistake, or biggest failure is the day we’ve forgotten the power of the Cross. Today is a good day to forgive someone. Maybe yourself.
Sometimes, people leave you and it really has nothing to do with you. Don’t allow their brokenness to break you. I know it’s hard, but you can trust the God who will never leave nor forsake you.
If you call yourself a follower of Jesus, welcome to full-time ministry.
No, that doesn’t mean you have to work at a church.
It’s means that every aspect of your life is now an opportunity to be a reflection of Jesus.
Love well.
Forgive well.
Serve well.
Share The Gospel.
