COT:
1 Peter 4:9-10
Show hospitality to one another without grumbling. As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace:

One of the things I enjoy most is playing drums on our worship team at church. I consider it a joy and a privilege to help lead God’s people in worshipping our creator.

Challenge: Find somewhere to serve at your church if you are not already. There is something for everyone, and you never know how you may impact someone’s entire day, week, month or year just by being there.

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.

“The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them”.

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.

Evaluate where you spend your time, money and thought. What are you building and what are you building upon?

Matt 7:24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%207&version=NASB1995#fen-NASB1995-23341o]acts on them, [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%207&version=NASB1995#fen-NASB1995-23341p]may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 And the rain fell, and the [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%207&version=NASB1995#fen-NASB1995-23342q]floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. 26 Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%207&version=NASB1995#fen-NASB1995-23343r]act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 The rain fell, and the [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%207&version=NASB1995#fen-NASB1995-23344s]floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.”

The Gospel is consequential…if that tomb was empty, stop over investing in this world at the expense of the next.

1 Cor 15: 16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised; 17 and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied.

”“For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it. “For you shall go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress; instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and it shall make a name for the Lord, an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”“
