We talked about how differences nurture our lives and enrich our perspective. Let’s pursue coping with differences and avoid criticisms since that is the easy way out.

COT: Was going to share my testimony, but in preparation and prayer God wanted me to talk about Him. Was going to talk about the prodigal son and corruption, but God shared that the parable is actually about the father too. The story goes, “that when the father saw the prodigal son in the distance, he had compassion on him, ran to him, hugged and kissed him.”

Oh how I long for the day to receive that embrace and kiss. Our Father made a way to Him by sacrificing His own son, so that we are no longer slaves, but sons…also heirs. (Gal 4:4-7)

Perhaps God is calling you to Him now, and it is time to receive the Spirit of His Son inside of you so you can experience the love from the kindest and loving Father you could ever know.

COT: We are, in general, a very blessed nation. Oftentimes, we do not count our blessings from God, and we take them for granted. At church, we sing a song “Count your blessings, name them one by one.” We need to remember to be grateful for all of our blessings, but this morning, I want to mention one blessing in particular that we especially shouldn’t take for granted: our wives. Proverbs 31 contains a description of a wife’s worthiness. In particular, verse 10 tells of her worth. “Her worth is far above jewels.” Our wives are a treasure that is far above value. If you are anything like me, you probably don’t tell her this often enough. She needs to know! There are far too many marriages that end for many reasons. Don’t let lack of appreciation for all she does be a reason for strife in your marriages.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: Honoring Data’s Dad, who lived to be 93 years old. We reflected on what our legacy as Dad’s can be. The 4 Ps:

– Pursuing Dads: we pursue our children’s hearts. Like Jesus pursued us in our sin, we have an example of the lengths God the Father went to pursue us.
– Present Dads: We are present emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically. We connect with our kids.
– Providing Dads: We provide space for our kids to be known and loved; we also provide financially.
– Protecting Dads: We protect our kids from the lies of this world as we point them to Jesus, we also protect them from unsafe people.

May we endeavor to prioritize our children and families as Data’s Dad did – retiring from his sales position to be spend more time with his kids!
