James 4:2

I could not get the video edited so you get to see the floor and moving of the camera. Sorry about that.
My Take Aways
Something Old
Want what I have-doing anything else causes a war within.
Want what I have-doing anything else causes warring and quarreling around me.
Philippians 4:11-13
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Something New
No matter what I have done in my past, I am worthy to serve God.
1 Timothy 1:12-14
I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength to do His work. He considered me trustworthy and appointed me to serve Him, even though I (fill in the blank). In my insolence, I (fill in the blank). But God had mercy on me because I did it in ignorance and unbelief. Oh, how generous and gracious our Lord was! He filled me with the faith and love that come from Christ Jesus.
Pray for all people
1 Timothy 2:1-2
- Ask God to help them
- Thank God for them
- So they may live peaceful lives marked with godliness and dignity
Something to Do
God is showing me to pray for all people. This Timothy verse and the Ephesians verse from a few weeks ago. Wow—He is certainly directing my prayer life.
