and see that they get justice.

A little snippet of what’s to come on Sunday…
For he will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help.
He will take pity on the weak and the needy and save the needy from death.
He will rescue them from oppression and violence, for precious is their blood in his sight.
Can’t Wait to talk about this tomorrow!
“We are not to simply bandage the wounds of victims beneath the wheels of injustice, we are to drive a spoke into the wheel itself.”

Proverbs 12:25 (NIV)
Another great passage on our current theme:
Let us consider how we may spur one another on towards love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another (in what?… in Love and good deeds) – and all the more as you see the Day approaching’ (Hebrews 10:24–25).
Great exhortation from Jude in Jude 1:21

This great Gospel we live means that
I’m not pressing in anymore. I’ve been pressed into.
I’m not contending anymore. I’ve been contended for.
I’m not a God chaser anymore. I’ve been chased down, roped, hogtied, bagged and dragged.
I’m not appropriating what I have. It’s mine already.
I’m not getting closer to God. He’s like a Siamese twin.
I’m not even seeking God anymore. He found me.
I don’t need to enter into more, I’m filled with the fullness of God
God is most glorified in you when you are most Satisfied in Him

Trying to do the Lord’s work in your own strength is the most
confusing, exhausting, and tedious of all work. But when you are

you.
