BOM:
Vengeance
This past week, I had someone treat me unfairly, and I was pretty upset about it. My mind raced with ways I could get back at them and give them a taste of their own medicine. I didn’t, I wanted to but I didn’t.

Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” (Romans 12:19)

The promise that frees us from an unforgiving, bitter, vengeful spirit is the promise that God will settle our accounts. He will do it more justly and more thoroughly than we ever could. Therefore, we can back off and leave room for God to work.

Moleskin: great work by the PAX this morning in the heavy humidity. We were all literally wringing out our shirts afterwards.

BOM:

Adversity –  We all face it.  The journey through adversity is inevitable if we’re striving for improvement.  It’s not the adversity itself, rather it’s your reaction to the adversity that is important.  As we go through life as husbands, fathers, employees and employers it is important to understand that don’t get to choose our circumstances at all times.  Adversity finds us whether we want it to or not.  We would all do well to remember that the world’s eyes are on us to see how we handle ourselves when we face difficulties – and more importantly, God’s eyes are on us in that same moment.

James 1:2-3   Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because the testing of your faith produces perserverence.

Moleskin:

BOM:

Something is better than nothing.  In the parable of the stewards Jesus rewards to two stewards who invest the money but punishes the one who does nothing.  Jesus wants to bless our efforts and we get lost in perfectionism.  Do something.  Just start!!  Something is better than nothing.  Its easy to see our failures and freeze and do nothing.  Do something.  Don’t fix it all today but do something.

BOM:

  • “The most secure prisons are those we construct for ourselves.”
  • Rarely do we think about the constraints we place on our own lives. Everything we are afraid to try is a limitation to what we can become. Fear and anxiety keep us from trying new things. Looking back throughout our lives we can see many broken promises to ourselves. Often, we use excuses (not smart enough/not strong enough/ not enough time/etc.) to justify these broken promises. We pay too much attention to words – others and our own – and not enough to the action that defines us.

From Joshua 6: 20-27

The walls of Jericho came tumbling down as my kids Bible Story book tells. If you read scripture the same thing happens, however there is death, destruction, and fire for the entire city of Jericho. Not the same as the kids’ version. Jericho stood in the way of Gods plan for His people. God did not take that lightly and had it completely destroyed. The same goes for sin in our lives. God takes sin seriously and will destroy sin so that we are able to follow Him. Find the sin, destroy it, leave no part of it standing, don’t look back, and keep moving. Galatians 4: 8-10
