Rebelling against or turning our backs on God is the last thing on our minds right now...
HEBREWS 10:24-25 (MSG)
Let’s see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Look for ways to nudge one another on to greater faithfulness.
DAILY FODDER
Practically speaking what does greater faithfulness look like? What are you doing to spur others on to this kind of love and faithfulness?
PRAYER
Thank you, God, for your love and faithfulness. Even when we flaked out and did our own thing you sent Jesus into the world to save us. I admit, though, that I'm still somewhat flaky and I'm a slow responder to your generosity. I need others to nudge me forward and they need me to do the same. Help me show up in their lives so that I can do my part. I'm going to look for someone today who needs a gentle nudge and I'm going to be open to their input into my life. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
We hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening there.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil.
Amen!
