CHANGE - 2

Hebrews 13: 15, 16

By Him, therefore, let us offer sacrifice of praise to GOD continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His Name. But to do good and to share forget not; for with such sacrifices GOD is well pleased.

PRAISE, GIVE THANKS, DO GOOD, AND SHARE.

This little phrase should be on our heart and continually a part of the story of our life. This was the way that JESUS lived. His life was praise to His Father; He gave thanks continually for everything; He did good and spared not and He shared all for the glory of His Father. JESUS showed us how to live, now we must follow Him, not counting the cost.

To me, a sacrifice is something that is given unconditionally without any thought of return or reciprocation. The change for me in 2013 is to give myself unconditionally to GOD and others; not counting the cost, just living without reservation. When JESUS saw a sick person, He was moved with love and healed that person. When JESUS saw weary and hungry crowds, He fed them. JESUS taught the truth about the Kingdom; JESUS taught the truth about His Father. JESUS never withheld the truth from anyone.

Let us live our life as a sacrifice of praise to GOD; giving thanks to Him; doing good to others and sharing what we have in our hand with those who have no way to reciprocate; all in the Name of JESUS and for His sake.

THANKS BE TO GOD WHO GIVES US THE VICTORY THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.
