It's a call to die to self and live for the glory of God in the daily "little" decisions. But in our obedience He can and will do much. May God continue to bless your family and ministry among the least of these.Jacklynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12175509225665070581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220373833294758704.post-45920787071639431842013-07-26T17:18:41.749-07:002013-07-26T17:18:41.749-07:00Thank you so much for sharing this.

His wisdom. His Holy Spirit who is willing moment by moment to lead you into all truth. <br /><br />As you worship through sacrifice -remember to keep your priorities in order - God, your family and then others. <br /><br />Consider our great example. John tells us that Jesus only did what he saw his father doing and only said what he heard his father saying. He also got away for times of prayer and refreshing.<br /><br />There is a great book out there called "margin". Just like the text in a book has margins we need margins in our life. Jesus made time for margin in His ministry.<br /><br />My encouragement to you is do with reckless abandon all that He lays on your heart - but don't necessarily do all that you see needs done. <br /><br />God has a great team down there - his body - He is building it up. Ephesians tells us that it is being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causing the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.<br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /><br /> <br />Montenoreply@blogger.com
