Humble Love is Action
Live:
I beseech you therefore,
brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living
sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and
acceptable and perfect will of God.
Serve:
For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among
you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to
think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. For as
we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the
same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and
individually members of one another.
Love:
Let love be
without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. Be kindly
affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving
preference to one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit,
serving the Lord; rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation,
continuing steadfastly in prayer; distributing to the needs of the
saints, given to hospitality.
Bless those who persecute you; bless
and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those
who weep. Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind
on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your
own opinion.
Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good
things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on
you, live peaceably with all men. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves,
but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I
will repay,” says the Lord.
Therefore “If your enemy is hungry,
feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will
heap coals of fire on his head.”
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Romans 12:1-5, 9-21 (NKJV)
Live Life with Expectation!
See you in God’s Winners Circle.
