COT:
Are you ever too far gone? Beyond the reach of God’s love?
This is one of those cases where a superlative is actually appropriate. Never means never. But what if you messed up your life/family/Sinned really bad?/Walked away from the faith. The same miracle working God who worked with the dead breathless body of Jesus to become the risen King can breath life into your soul.

My strange place for encouragement but let’s check out lamentations 3:21:
But this I called to mind and therefore I have hope. The steadfast line of the Lord NEVER ceases. His mercies NEVER come to an end. They are new EVERY morning. Great is Your faithfulness!

(Pardon the punctuation I’m going from memory and the caps I added. )

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:

Acts 24:25 ESV
And as he reasoned about righteousness and self-control and the coming judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, “Go away for the present. When I get an opportunity I will summon you.”

There are many who want to exercise authority, power, control in wide arenas, but who have very little control over their own selfish desires. On the other hand, those who are known for handling their business in a reasonable manner are looked upon favorably for places of leadership.

God has gifted all of us with varying degrees of responsibility and calling, but one area we are all called to exercise control over is ourselves. And this one area we all must control, none of us are able without the help of the Spirit warring against the flesh. But if we don’t wage that war in this one battle, how can we expect to succeed in larger callings?

He gives greater grace. Let us strive with all the grace he gives to be masters of our own selves.

Doesn’t God love us? Didn’t he give his Son for us? There’s arguably the supreme demonstration of Spirit-led self control. He trusted his Father’s love and will, and looked forward to the joy set before him. Can we not, by that same Spirit, also trust our Father’s love for us, his good purposes? Let’s press on in patient endurance, knowing he means us well, and what he intends, he accomplishes.
