Your Example...

It was so hard to get up this morning.  Maybe it's this gray weather outside...  I need sunshine in my life :)

PRAYER: Dear Father, show me how to rely on Your strength and not my own today and every day of my life. Lead me to take the pauses I need to just hear from You before I make any type of decision or action.  You are a God that I can trust completely.  I trust You LORD.  In Jesus' name I pray.  Amen.

MATTHEW 18:1o-14 

THE PARABLE OF THE LOST SHEEP: 

(Jesus- :4 "Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven) 

:10 "See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven. What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost."

Just as a shepherd is concerned enough about one lost sheep to go search the hills for it, so God is concerned about every human being He has created (He "does not want anyone to perish," 2 Peter 3:9).  When you come across children in your life who need Christ, don't scare them into coming to Him.  Don't fill their heads with opinion and fallacies, so that God's true message is missing.  Instead steer them toward our loving God by example, your words, your acts of kindness and obedience.  People learn more about you and what you truly believe by just being in your presence than they do from directly speaking to you.

LIVE HONESTLY FOR GOD.
