There is a moment in your walk with God when you realize that possessing the land is going to be hard work.
And then there is a bigger moment when you realize that all your hard work cannot do what only God can do: set people free, love them relentlessly, deliver them consistently, fill them with His Spirit and His Love.
“Haven’t I worked hard trying to do more than any of the others?
Even then, my work didn’t amount to all that much.
It was God giving me the work to do,
God giving me the energy to do it.”
1 Corinthians 15:10-11 MSG
Yet, not I but the grace of God within me….
It is a sweet moment.
A defining moment.
The moment you realize that the work of God doesn’t depend on you but that you get to join in the work of God by depending on Him more and more.
It isn’t about you. You are a part of a family, a part of the mission, a part of a vision born in heaven and lived on earth.
“So whether you heard it from me or from those others, it’s all the same: We spoke God’s truth and you entrusted your lives.”
1 Corinthians 15:10-11 MSG
Love people grace-full-y, speak God’s truth and then let Him do the heavy lifting of changing people’s lives.
We say yes to joining Your work, Christ Jesus.
