This is what you need to do:
- Make sure that what you say is completely true.
- Make sure that every pronouncement you render in your realm of influence, whether it be between friends talking over coffee, or during proceedings in a court of law, sways things to truth, justice, and peace.
So, let's pour our energy into nurturing harmonious relationships and things that build each other up.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Highlight things that honestly build people up rather than dragging them down.
DAILY FODDER
Why does God want us to prioritize harmony in his church?
PRAYER
God, you are both a straight shooter and a highly relational being. I OTOH am prone to exageration. I prioritize building myself up over nurturing others. Help me to adopt your priorities. As a follower of Jesus I want my life to mirror yours. 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 in heaven.
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!
