DAY THIRTY


AN EVERYDAY EXPRESSION



It's the end of our sixth week....keep on keeping on!....
My friend, if you're behind don't fret, just keep working at your own pace--getting the most of of the study as you can.


TODAY'S MAIN IDEA:
We worship God by serving Him in our everyday lives with reverence and awe.





Worship is to be a lifestyle.

Serving is a part of our worship to God!


Missional Clarity – Why are you Here? (Pt. 3)

John 13 gives us a rich example of what serving God looks like –in a nut shell it involves serving others in the name of Jesus Christ. In John 13 we see a humble picture of Jesus teaching all eternity what serving others looks like. There are several powerful lessons that can be learned from Christ’s example:

1. He knew who He was and where He was going.

2. He “showed them the full extent of His love.”

3. Serving others is the place of fulfillment.

4. He didn’t expect to be fully appreciated for what He was doing.

Bottom line: Serving God will lead you to becoming the person God created you to be. If you want to experience missional clarity (why are you here) you need to Accept, Embrace, and Serve God.

(written by Andy Stevens)


God reveals His presence to us through prayer, worship, His Word and through others.
"As we draw near to God, we must come with a pure heart in response to who He is and what He has done... He wants us our voice to proclaim adoration, appreciation, desperation, and expectation, but also every day demonstrating a lifestyle of worship--a life that is being transformed by His Word." (p. 131, workbook)
Have you expressed love to Him by showing kindness and generosity to others today?
Go out, rejoice, and share His love to others in tangible ways.

God bless,
Ken
