Enjoy Life, Enjoy God

EVERYONE HAS HEARD ABOUT...

October 28, 2009

What do you want to be known for? What do people value us for? What is impressive?

Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I rejoice because of you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil.
Romans 16:19 TNIV

Imagine being famous, "everyone hearing about," our obedience! That's a whole different value than our world's--How big is your church? What is our child's SAT score? Tell me about your career. To follow Christ is to invest in a new value system, a new kingdom set, the kingdom of God.

Yet Paul commends people for obedience. How would my day change today, if OBEDIENCE were its object? How would yours?

Enjoy Life, Enjoy God
Joyfully,
