Peace

The more often you embrace peace the more often you'll be at peace.

failure

failure is a matter of perspective

Eyes

What I see in myself is from the external.

The screw ups and pains

The imperfections and markups

God looks at the heart

Failure

I'm a failure I'm a broken person I've fallen from grace

Still God loves me

Perfect

Maybe God didn't call you to be a perfectionist and superstar in everything you touch.  Maybe he just wanted to love you no matter what

Love

This love surpasses knowledge

Ephesians 3:19

Worship

When you don't know what to say,  give glory to God in silence.

Friendship

God put friendship in our lives to give a glimpse of what his love is like.

Peace

The end result should be peace. If it's not on that path keep working. 

[lostdisciples-blog1]

Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are  noble, whatever things are  just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are  lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there  is any virtue and if there  is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

Paul -  philippians 4

do good; Seek peace and pursue it.

Psalm 34:14

Abundance

A day will come when Man believes they have made perfection, heaven on earth. 

Then we will find that Physical salvation is nothing compared to spiritual salvation.

safety

In you I am secure. 

My God is my Rock and Fortress

In nothing else is trust secure. 

In you I am secure

God has placed inside me everything I need to accomplish what he has for me.

Barna Study on Post-Christianity

Barna did a study on 43,000 people who claimed to be Christian. Here’s a few notable statistics.

81% had not attended a small group in the last week

79% had not volunteered at a church in the last week

57% had not read the Bible in the last week

47% do not feel a responsibility to share their faith

Stats taken from: Relevant Magazine Issue #64

Which is important because Jesus looked down from the cross as he was dying and said all of this is for nothing unless you go to small groups, volunteer, read about it in your bible everyday, and drop it on other people like its hot... So hot they will burn in hell if you don't share a this story about myself.

How about we choose to tell if someone follows Christ by if they follow Christ? And not if they attend a small group every week.

How do you measure someone's heart
