Pyramids are built brick by brick. It takes time and work to build, just like anything of value. Your house, your career, your marriage, your children.

Additionally, even after being built, you cannot ignore them. Continued maintenance is required or all of these will crumble.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
-Hardship Hill this Saturday!!!

COT:
This morning I tried very hard to find something to share, but nothing came to me. Instead, God told me to share what was on my heart. I said “No, I’ll find something else.” I did not find something else and again God told me to share what was on my heart.

Reluctantly, I complied. My heart has been convicted with unforgiveness. I have been holding onto a grudge for years against somebody who hurt me. It’s like taking poison myself and hoping that person would die. It’s ridiculous in its illogic.

I hope my conviction by the Holy Spirit may also be encouraging to my brothers at F3. May we all forgive as He forgave.

Mary
– “You know, sometimes I amaze even myself.”
– “Don’t everyone thank me at once.”

Word

– Star Wars is the classic melodrama: Good guys wear white and bad guys wear black. You know who’s who from the start of a scene. Han Solo is the one exception: he wears black over white. He starts out as a bad guy: selfish, obsessed with money, and only looks out for number one. However, he undergoes a change during the movie; the classic protagonist. At the end of Episode IV A New Hope, after fleeing with his reward, he returns dramatically to save Luke and help destroy the Death Star cementing his place in the Rebel Alliance.

– The journey of Han is an example of coming of age. Look back at yourself as a child and a youth. Were you selfish, obsessed with money, and only looking out for number one? At what point did this start to change for you? When did you start to love sacrificially? Look at your children. Do you see Han Solo in them? Teach them diligently and with patience. With God’s grace, they too may return to dramatically save the day and cement their place in the Rebel Alliance of life.

COT:
What are your spiritual gifts? No, not fruits of the spirit like I wanted to consider. Spiritual gifts are specific to you and how God created you!
My challenge to you is to take a spiritual gifts test and see where you fall. Then, decide if you’re using those God-given gifts to further his kingdom. It’s convicting….and it should be. None of us are perfect. Be vulnerable and honest with yourself. Maybe even share it with someone else.

See 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 in the comments.

COT:
Proverbs 24:33-34
It can be easy to have a good habit slip away even from just a little bit of rest from it. Be on guard not to let transient events derail your long term success. Sometimes it’s tempting to squeeze in one more thing by taking a “short break” on a consistent good.
