I heard a quote this week about prayer that I think deserves some further thought. It's from a woman who was giving her testimony at a church in Quispamsis, New Brunswick. "Spontaneous prayer will change your situation but committed (daily) prayer will change your life". -Michele Breen. I thought she had a really good point. Sometimes we come to God in desperation for a specific need, and that's good. God can work in that situation. But committed, consistent daily prayer will do more than just change your situation, it will start to change your life. May I live this principle out.
Key Verse from Sunday:
"I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent". -Luke 15:7, NIV
Recap
Message: The Lost Are Found
We looked at the parable of the lost sheep and the lost coin (Luke 15:1-10).
1. Purposely Engage with the Lost.
2. Take a Risk to Reach the Lost.
3. Be Persistent. Don't give up. When something doesn't work, try something else.
4. Celebrate the Find.
Question for Reflection
What are ways that we can learn from our mistakes rather than let them discourage us from trying to share the Gospel?
I welcome your comments.
