We need to remember where we come from, care about people, minister to them where they are starting from, and illustrate the way to God by the way we live.
The passions we choose in life determine our level of contentment. If we give ourselves to some things, we will surely wind up devoid of satisfaction. Chasing after godliness will give us a lasting contentment that cannot be taken from us.
We have been saved from judgement and saved to eternal life with God, in fellowship with Him. This reality changes everything about our journey and mission.
Jesus gives God the glory by calling people to know God. We are precious in God's sight - will this propel us to serve our community by sharing the love and truth of Jesus with them?
