Before I Knew It
Will we always see the result of the work we've done by witnessing to others and being there when they need us the most? Most certainly not. But that shouldn't discourage us from being there and sharing the Gospel. We never really know how God is using us. We just need to have faith that He is.
Sometimes we think we are asked to move mountains when Jesus is calling us to simply plant seeds. We may not see the end result, but we must have faith in the process.
"For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you."
Matthew 17:20
When Jesus came calling on me, it was well after the seed had been planted, before I even knew it.
Weakness is going to come. The world will place distractions in your path, and you may try to lean on your own good works and understanding. Take heart that God is here to help you grow. He will pick you up when you don't think you can stand. He will never leave you or abandon you.
"Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established."
Proverbs 16:3
Have a great Labor Day weekend, and we will pick back up Tuesday after the holiday.
Be Nice. Grace Wins.

More Than Enough
Jesus doesn't need the sharpest tool in the shed. Two fish and five loaves, a shepherd's stick, whatever you've got, is more than enough. The Lord specializes in turning failures into successes.

In the Majority
If God is for us, who can be against us? A jealous God asks for our faithfulness in return, and gives us a friend who sticks closer than a brother. If God is on our side, we're in the majority.

Ready for Anything
Seat belts, helmets, parachutes, they don't restrict us, they let us fully enjoy what we're doing. The same is true with Jesus. More dangerous than any risk we take is living life without Him.
