My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. John 10:27
I need to let you all know that my cousin, Doug died Sunday night.
We have prayed for him for a long time and his last days were horrible.  This isn’t the way we would want it.  He was only 42 and throat and mouth cancer spreading everywhere meant he died of not being able to drink or swallow. He lost most of his ability to speak a few months back.
His only expression of faith I know of, one I believe to be genuine, was by text message with my mom.

So we can learn a few things from Doug
1) Never smoke or dip – it is not worth it. Don’t let your loved ones do it either.
2) Express your faith while you still have a voice and breath
Expressing that is a gift to your family and what God wants.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
John 10:27
God knows them. He isn’t letting anyone slip through the cracks
Not the sheep know Him. He knows the Sheep.
We are the sheep, if you hear His voice, do not harden your heart
Some will hear his voice and mistake it for Thunder
Father, glorify your name.” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
John 12:28‭-‬29 ESV
There are so many competing voices, but he way the Secret Service handles counterfeit.  You study the real thing till you know it so well, it is easy to distinguish the real thing.

Little Known Facts About Laziness #7

Let’s review the facts…

Fact #7 – The way of the lazy slowly creep to sudden disaster.

Proverbs 6:9-11

9 How long will you lie there, O sluggard?
When will you arise from your sleep?
10 A little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to rest,
11 and poverty will come upon you like a robber,
and want like an armed man.

Things start small, just little things that are off. Things get a little lax but then disaster is sudden and unavoidable.

The Proverbs talk about poverty coming like a robber. Sudden and unannounced, without warning.

The other illustration is similar but slightly different. The armed man illustrates how poverty is forced on you. It’s unavoidable and when it comes it’s too late.

The encouragement today is to consider areas of your life that could be getting lax and headed in the wrong direction. It starts small but be diligent and keep going and headed in the right direction.

Gentlemen I’ve had a good run 🏃‍♂️ Thank you for the opportunity! It’s been an honor and a pleasure.

I couldn’t think of a better person to pass this flag to. I’ve had a lot of discussions with a lot of you as well as several members of the leadership team.

First off I feel super blessed to have such a great group of leaders to choose from. Obviously I wanted someone that represented all 3 F’s. Beyond that, I was looking for consistency. Who’s always here? Who’s leading by example? Who’s bringing ideas to challenge us? Who’s trying to strengthen the bond we have?

I wrote down Legacy when I was considering this role.

What is an example of a legacy?

For example, some people consider a legacy to be real estate or money. But the most treasured forms of legacy are found in intangible gifts: values, memories, friendship, love, and respect. I like the intangible ones…

The other was Passing the baton.

Where did the phrase passing the baton come from?

The phrase “passing the baton” is thought to have originated in the Olympic relay race around 1967, signifying duty and denoting that a successful outcome requires collective effort. This understanding of collaboration was embodied by passing an emblematic baton from competitor to competitor. I like that as well.

Run the good race my brother!! I’ll be here to support and cheer you on!!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Worship is not just something that we do on Sunday mornings or Wednesday nights. We worship something every day, whether it’s sports, exercise, money, jobs or God. So, how do we live our daily lives in worship to God? 

Romans 12: 1 says, “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.” So the first thing is that we need to sacrifice ourselves, give our lives to the Lord and in following Jesus. Then verse 2 says, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” So in sacrificing ourselves we shouldn’t conform to the pattern of this world.

And then a few verse down in verse 9 it says some things that highlight a Christian and how we might live out worship in our daily lives. It says, “Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. 13 Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.” And the list goes on further, but those are just a few things that we can do in our daily lives to worship the Lord. So, what is one thing you can do to worship the Lord? One thing on that list that you might try to improve on as you try to live a lifestyle of worship.

Psalm 143:10 

10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!

 1- The request –  “Teach me to do your will,”- Isn’t that basically what we all want and need from God? It’s a direct request to God that he will honor. 

2- The praise – “for you are my God!” – I love this declaration of worship and respect to God. 

3 – Continued praise and doubling down on the request – “Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!” – This gives me a visual for “Your will be done” – David invites God to lead him. He humbly admits that he can’t walk through life on his own. He needs the one and only mighty God to walk with him.
