Set free from sin and become slaves to God

"Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to win their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord.Whaterver you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men" Colossians 3:22-23

I've read that passage a handful of times, but not until last week did God reveal the importance of the whole passage in context. It is about slaves. Not free men who freely choose to do, but slaves who are required to do because their masters are in complete control and God is in complete control. Please pray that the attitude and form that our service takes is not out of a gift we think we can give, but seeking to glorify God through the little things that He calls each of us to do.

We had the pleasure and blessing to see the kitchen rebuild at Family Promise completed today! Praise God for His work and guidance there and it is so exciting that we were able to be a part of that plan for the sole purpose of glorifying Him. Please pray for the ministry that it glorifys God and can be used a tool to draw people to Christ. Please pray though the verses below as well for complete submission to God's will here.

Gettin in it with some glue and vinyl!

The past few weeks God has truly been convicting me of our purpose and viewing Him in right relation. Tonight I was invited to Saturday Night Life church down at Atlantic Beach. I'm just gonna ramble off some of the convicting verses and please pray that as we pursue our neighbors for Christ, we consistently recognize Him as King and in complete sovereign control over everything.

Boom!

" 'I have mercy on whom I have mercy and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.' It does not, therefore depend on man's desire or effort, but on God's mercy. For the Scripture say to Pharoah: 'I raised you up for this very puspose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaim in all the earth' " Romans 6:15-17

Ain't much purttier than that

"Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use? Whit if God, choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of His wrath - prepared for destruction? What if He did this to make the riches of His glory known to the objects of His mercy, who He prepared in advance for glory." Romans 6:21-23
