Be like Jesus – Eat with someone

“The Son of Man has come eating and drinking” Luke 7:34a

While not the main point of the verse, the fact is Jesus connected with people over food.  We should do the same.  The challenge is simple.  Before this time next week, take someone to a meal or coffee or better yet have them in your home.

invite someone from work, someone here (or who hasn’t been here in a while) or someone you don’t know

Bananas distributed as a reminder to share food.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Hopefully today you’ve been exposed to a new workout.  The goal was to get us out of our comfort zone a little.

Think about your daily routine a little. Maybe you come here, eat, run to the office, do some sort of hobby or kid activity, etc.

What if your best laid plans and goals were thrown off for some reason….there are terrible ways that can happen like losing your job or an accident, but there are also positive ways like promotions, job opportunities, unexpected kids

The character of a person…and in this case a MAN… is how you react in those situations.  I don’t want a show of hands, but if you cringed or had a negative reflection of how you would probably react…then you need to remember that gods in control. You should feel comfort in Him and fall back on your values and trusts that you are in good hands.

Sometimes He like to take us out of our comfort zones and frankly laugh at them.  He’s laughed at mine twice over the past year…

Matthew chapter 4

Jesus, God’s son is the trustworthy one

Matthew 5:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
MOLESKIN:
This Scripture tells us that when we acknowledge our spiritual bankruptcy, this is when God can use us the most. Counter to the culture which is all about you, God gives us a different path. Let us focus on God and see how He, in turn, allows us to see His work and His Kingdom rule in our lives

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

If your spiritual life is in a rut, maybe it’s not big changes you need.  If your not being fruitful or it’s ineffective take little steps.

Consider 2 Peter 1 5-7

For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,
and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness,
and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.

A small faith, supplemented with virtue: Might just be keeping your word and coming out here b/c you said you would. Or the virtue of opening your heart to your family and being present despite distractions.
Virtue with knowledge: Take some time to study God’s word and take it seriously; hint: don’t go it alone
Knowledge with self control: Figure out how to control your body, desires and ambitions. That’s a differentiator.
Steadfastness: Do it for a long time and you get godliness
godliness which results in brother affection because God is full of affection for every brother.  Finally resulting in Love.  Just as Jesus loved us.

Be faithful to your Savior, Be faithful to your family, be faithful to your Church
But try a new time of day for study, a new setting for prayer, Try a new posture
Reach out to a friend and pick a 3 day reading plan together or a short book of the bible

For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,
and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness,
and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.
For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you
from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2 Peter 1:5-8
