Sunday Words of Encouragment April 11, 2010

This morning our Pastor had another good message that contained more than one message (INHO). He did not present it this way and this is my summary; the scriptures he did provide with Galations 6:1-10 as the primary text.
1) Recognize that we are all sinners 1 John 1:8; Gal 6:1b
2) Dislike (I try never to expend energy in "hate") the sin, but love the sinner. Gal 6:2-4
3) Be compassionate, humble and gentle in addressing issues and seeking restoration Gal 6:1; but do not enable the sinner. We must each learn to be responsible for our own actions. Gal 6:5.
4) Do not grow weary in well doing. Gal 6:9 and 2 Thess 3:13.
5) You will reap what you sow. Gal 6:10.

I couldn't help but be reminded of the book Heart of Compassion that I reviewed a few weeks ago. There they showed compassion and helped the homeless help themselves! The story fits perfectly with today's message.

Here is another song I found last week that I had never heard but it is quite awesome and beautiful!
Lost in Wonder (You Chose the Cross) by Martyn Layzell

Verses for today:
Galatians 6:4-5
4Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else. 5For we are each responsible for our own conduct.

I am praying today for those with addictions who need direction to get help but who must be willing to change before anyone else can help them.
