CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Tuesday Kickflip shared from Philippians 4:8, “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” Today, I wanted to add to that filling our minds with the Word of God has great benefit to each person who endeavors to know Him, and has many more benefits to reap of temporal and eternal value. From Psalm 1:1-3,

Blessed is the man[a]
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the law[b] of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.

MOLESKIN:
If the result of meditating on the Word of God reaps immeasurable personal benefits, imagine how much more in our marriages and families, and workplaces, and relationships.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

From Dredd’s blog The Collision Learner and Chapter Five from Minivan Centurion Good Drivers
“If a guy cuts you off in traffic, you can take that as “drop dead” and respond in kind. Or you can just assume that he is a bad driver and keep driving reasonably. If you choose the former, that means that you too become a bad driver and may provoke another negative response from him. A good driver wouldn’t do that because it might disrupt him from getting to his destination safely, which is the whole purpose in driving, to get where you are going in one piece.”
With your goals, don’t let the bad change you in a way that could keep you from where you want to end up.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Acts 1:8 – “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

Matthew 28:19 – “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,”

John 20:21 – “Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you.”

2 Corinthians 5:20 – “Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us.”

Throughout the Bible, we are called to share the good news to the ends of the Earth.  I haven’t done that.  Sure, I’ve given my life to Christ, I’m a believer, I’ve chosen to serve in non-profits, I’ve attended church forever, I volunteer and I’ve even invited people to church but I now realize I haven’t done enough.  If I died today, I’d consider myself a failure in evangelizing to non-believers or those that aren’t on fire for God.  We all know lots of people that say they’re Christian and not bad people but they’re not on fire for God.

I can do more.  I have to do more if I’m going to follow the word to be a witness and make disciples.

I just finished a study series about evangelism and the speaker shared some advice…he said,

  • You’re not going to your kid’s ballgame…you’re going to share the good news and when you’re there, watch the ballgame
  • You’re not going to the grocery store…you’re going to disciple to others and when you’re doing that, go ahead and get groceries

The presenter also encouraged us to make lists of concentric circles of people that we need to intentionally visit with to learn more about their faith journey.  For example, one circle should be our family, another our friends, another our coworkers.  He challenged us…ME…to be intentional and seek opportunities to share.

Think about that…if 100% of what you did was for Christ how would that change your life or your actions or laying on the horn when someone cuts you off or won’t go.  This is pretty deep and I’ve doing a lot of soul-searching and I’m proud of how I live and serve most of the time but I’m not “all in” all of the time…I’m not actively seeking out non-believers or fair-weather Christians like I need to be.

So, I’m 50 years old and a little pissed off at myself for not listening to what I’ve heard through the years.  I’m a bit ticked off that I didn’t hear someone at 25 or 35 tell me to get my head out of my “you know what” and start living an abundant life by proudly sharing my faith with other.  I’m challenging you to not be like me and to start spreading the good news today and don’t wait until you’re an old man like me.

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭23:1‬ ‭ESV‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.23.1.ESV

Sheep are in need of a shepherd

I’m smart. I’m capable. I have a plan. I am a sheep and none of those things are actually true. 

Live humbly before your God.

“Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.”
