Proverbs 16:16
What does it mean if you have given your life to the Lord?
Proverbs helps us to make decisions.
Reflecting on the lesson about broken cisterns.
Be careful not to use things of this world to satisfy your soul.
Only what you do for Christ will last.
1 Timothy 6:6-21
How content are you in Christ? Some people are just “happy-campers”.
Some people can’t live more for God because they are trying to live for themselves.
God’s economic policy says that if you have it, be ready to share it.
If you die rich, but not rich in good works, your life missed the mark.
(back to Proverbs 16)
Don’t be a person who one day wishes they had taken the narrow path.
Be the person who has great reward because they choose to walk closer with God.
Philippians 4:4-13
How quick are you to rejoice in the Lord? Consider Ms. Jones.
Keep perspective and appreciate what the Lord has given you.
If want want the peace of God, you need to plan your life accordingly (think on these things…)
Don’t let another week go by without thinking, planning, and acting on what God wants.
Be an example for others to know how to live as a Christian.
