COT:
At church, we’re doing a series called “Get In The Game!”

The point is you belong in the game of eternity. Walking and winning with Jesus.

It starts with our daily habits. We’ve all heard the one percent better every day = a 37% improvement in a year.

3 habits I encourage you to work on: time in prayer, getting into the Word, and gratitude.

His point was by choosing daily habits, you are choosing to stay in the game by not, we are actually benching ourselves.

“Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me.””
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭

COT:
I’ve had a few times where I’ve been challenged with some unexpected changes that have directly affected my and my families lives.

It’s natural for most of us to immediately respond emotionally whether externally or internally, and to start thinking of defensive measures or responses. But..if were honest…how often do we smile and think of how great an opportunity it is for our spiritual life or that we’re blessed with another challenge?

While that may not be normal for anyone, think about where you turn for support? Do you vent or call a specific person that you think will give you the answer you want to hear? How long does it take you to come to the prayer?

If our faith is Luke-warm or we don’t have a solid foundation, is not difficult to be affected by small challenges/storms.

It’s all like prepping and practicing…when something sudden and unexpected happens, the natural instant is based on what thoughts and muscles you frequently have or use.

1 Corinthians 15:58
“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.”

COT:
I had the honor of joining Mr. Wanderer and his family at their church this past Sunday. And, while the sermon was based on the importance of doing Good Work, the thing that I kept hearing over and over and over again both in the sermon and in the music was an emphasis on God’s Name. If it had been only one reference, I would have thought – well, ok we should certainly respect the name of God. However, this was such a frequent refrain throughout the event it I began to over analyze… again. Then, there was that Ahh ha moment – Why such emphasis on the word “Name”? and His Name in general? So, what I surmised is that the name of God and His son Jesus is above all others. The name represents all that God represents. Since His name is clean, and above all others, and His name is truly beyond reproach and should be exalted above all else, what does that say about our personal names? Yikes! That’s a high bar to set for ourselves, right? To respect our name as we would His own? Well heck, have any of us ever fallen short of these expectations? Have we done things that we are not so proud of? Have we disrespected our name or the name of others? And, are my own transgressions so great that I should just crawl in a hole and stop trying? That hardly seems fair. No, he is a fair God, and a righteous God – and thank God he offers Forgiveness. As each of us go out into our communities this week, I encourage us all to practice forgiveness of others and also of ourselves.
What I remember growing up is how my mother always told me that the most important possession in life is our reputation, and that our reputation is all we take with us when we are no longer here.
And so I I found the following excerpt from…
Bible, Matthew 6:14-15: “For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.”

The life of a Christian…
Some would say that this is a life of restriction, rules, and lack of fun. I would disagree. It is true that the Bible teaches a standard to live by. Yes, there are commandments to follow, and that means avoiding what much of the world would consider “fun” in some cases. However, what is missed by this viewpoint is the intent behind those commands. Take for example the law against drunkenness. There may be some temporary pleasure in this, but there are many possible negative consequences: damaged families, health concerns, risk of injury, etc. God’s way is better because it shields us from those negative consequences. God always has our best interests in mind. He demonstrates this ultimately by sending His son, Jesus Christ, to live as a human, experience all the temptations that we do without sin, and then sacrifice Himself for our sins. He did not deserve death; we do.
Romans 5:6-9 NASB1995
[6] For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. [7] For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. [8] But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. [9] Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.
The Christian life is the best kind of life. If anyone ever wants to talk more about this, I am always happy to discuss.
