Suffering & God's Response Pt. 5 Choosing to Suffer By Louie Marsh, 4-6-2025   Intro – X quotes, video of man who quit believing.   1) When I accepted Christ I accepted SUFFERING in His Name.   “24Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” (Matthew 16:24–25, ESV)   2) This suffering can impact my ENTIRE life.   “34“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 36And a person's enemies will be those of his own household. 37Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38And whoever does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” (Matthew 10:34–39, ESV)   3) I suffer INTERNALLY as well as physically.   “23And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” (Luke 9:23, ESV)   “20I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20, ESV)   “13“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.” (Matthew 7:13–14, ESV)   4) Why not ask WHY?   “1The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord gave them into the hand of Midian seven years.” (Judges 6:1, ESV)   “12And the angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to him, “The Lord is with you, O mighty man of valor.” 13And Gideon said to him, “Please, my lord, if the Lord is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all his wonderful deeds that our fathers recounted to us, saying, ‘Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt?' But now the Lord has forsaken us and given us into the hand of Midian.” 14And the Lord turned to him and said, “Go in this might of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian; do not I send you?”” (Judges 6:12–14, ESV)   5) Don't ask why, ask…   ·  WHAT can I learn from this?   “11For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.” (Hebrews 12:11, ESV)   ·  HOW can I deal with this?   “1I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:1–2, ESV)   “18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.” (Romans 8:18, ESV)   ·  WHERE do I go with this?   “20Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future. 21Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.” (Proverbs 19:20–21, ESV)   “25that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. 26If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.” (1 Corinthians 12:25–26, ESV)   ·  WHO can I help with the lessons learned?   “3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” (2 Corinthians 1:3–4, ESV)   6) A snap shot of living by FAITH.   “32And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets— 33who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, 34quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. 35Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life. 36Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment. 37They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword. They went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, mistreated— 38of whom THE WORLD WAS NOT WORTHY—wandering about in deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.” (Hebrews 11:32–38, ESV)

https://youtu.be/PiznHI8zAZU?si=-8t4BVtLFPCel7dX Chill Christmas - 4 - How to Make A Moment Chill Christmas Bumper?   Welcome to Redemption Church of Plano Tx. My name is Chris Fluitt!   Chill Christmas Title   Christmas is upon us!We are in the FINAL week of our message Series – Chill Christmas.   Last week we talked about…   Rediscovering Simple Fun – through Joy!   Life is complex, but Joy is simple   In this series we have lit the candles of HOPE, PEACE, & JOY. Now we light the candle of Love.   Today – How to make a moment   I remember a Christmas Eve where Sarah and I were doing a Christmas Eve worship service.   Beautiful Ambiance… Music… Spiritual moment… Candlelight   It was PERFECT!   But then the Service ended…   -No food ready at home…-Search for restaurant – Closed! -Only Chinese food (Packed out)   Kids – Dad what are we going to do?Extended family with us…   We had a PERFECT Christmas Eve service… But our Christmas Eve was complicated. Thankfully Sarah saved the day with a traditional Christmas Spaghetti!   Perfection We know this season is driven by an idea of perfection.   Scrolling through Instagram… perfect Christmas photos. Perfect tree. Perfect family. Perfect matching pajamas. Perfect everything.   Your life – NOT PERFECT.-Christmas tree - dent where the cat attacked it -Your kids are fighting because – they are awake. (Fight Club) -Turkey is dry again…-Thoughts “How do I return whatever ugly sweater I get as a gift.”   We are chasing perfection… but this world is anything but perfect.   You know the stats… debt, divorce, depression.You've seen the news… We have no idea what the drones are!   We have REAL HARDSHIPS in our life…THIS WEEK, some of you have… Hospital…Job problems… Anxious & freaking out…   Trying to manufacture perfect moments in the middle of an imperfect world is exhausting.   The first Christmas – it wasn't perfect. Not even close.   Luke 2:7 "And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.”   Let that sink in.   The most important moment in human history – and He did it in a stable. No place to stay…   Cloths… Swaddling clothes… STRIPS OF CLOTH (No onesie – Baby's First Christmas)   No perfect conditions… but WHAT A MOMENT!   The moment marked… not by what they DID NOT have… but what they did have.   Love made the moment God didn't wait for perfect conditions to show perfect love. He didn't say, "Let me wait until humanity gets its act together." No, He stepped right into our mess. Our chaos. Our imperfection. Perfection did not make the moment… Love made the moment…   Yeah yeah… God's love… but Chris… Easy for God… difficult for people in the real world…   Let's not talk about God for a moment…   Let's talk about Joseph….Mary, Joseph, Jesus   Joseph is engaged to Mary!Life gets complicated – Mary becomes pregnant!   Not what Joseph signed up for…Joseph continues to love Mary. How do we know?He chooses to trust God and to not divorce Mary. Love made the moment…   Joseph has a son that is not technically his…Complicated…Joseph loved Jesus… How do we know?#1 It appears Joseph adopts Jesus. Matthew gives us the lineage of Jesus through his adopted father – Joseph.   #2Do you know Joseph's profession? Carpenter. Same as Jesus' profession.Joseph JesusJoseph loved Jesus enough to share wisdom.Jesus loved Joseph enough to receive wisdom.   What an amazing example for our families.Parents & Kids listen up!LOVE ENOUGH to give wisdom.LOVE ENOUGH to receive wisdom.   Life was NOT PERFECT for Joseph… But Love Made the MomentLove made the moment   So what does this mean for you?   Stop waiting for perfect conditions… Create meaningful moments with Love. Love is what makes the moment.   Complication does not have to derail the significance of the season.   Instead, try these three things: 1. Check your motivation - LOVE    - Before you plan anything this holiday season,

Romans 12:1 - 21 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Guest Preacher: Xavier Reyes - GraceTeens Director 

Mount Olive Church

Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Go near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools, who do not know that they do wrong. 2Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few. 3A dream comes when there are many cares, and many words mark the speech of a fool. 4When you make a vow to God, do not delay to fulfill it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfill your vow.5It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it.6Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, My vow was a mistake. Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands?7Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore fear God.

A Living Sacrifice 1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Gifts of Grace 3For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. 4For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, 5so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. 6Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; 7if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; 8the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness. Marks of the True Christian 9 Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. 10Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. 11Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. 12Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 13Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality. 14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. 15Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. 16Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. 17Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. 18If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. 19Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” 20To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

What we do forms our loves, and what we love or desire directs our lives. The problem comes when we don't recognize that our habits form what our hearts love and desire. This week we look at how we can - as Christians - resist seemingly innocent cultural practices and liturgies that so deeply are aspiring to recruit and form our hearts and imagination. “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

This morning rant is the beginning of a series about the "Will of the Father". The bible tells us that God "works all things according to the counsel of his will". If that is the case we need to find out what is his will and what's not his will.Matthew 6:10Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.Ephesians 5:17Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.Matthew 7:21Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.Romans 12:2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.1 John 2:16-17For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.Ephesians 5:15-20Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart, …Ephesians 1:11In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will,Matthew 26:39And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”1 Peter 3:17For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be God's will, than for doing evil.James 4:15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.1 Peter 2:15For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people.Ephesians 5:6-20Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient. 7 Therefore do not be partners with them. 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10 and find out what pleases the Lord. 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. 14 This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” 15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.John 6:40 For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/622a9079e8fb640012cb94f3.

1st Peter -Living as Sojourners & Exiles Part Two: Set Myself, 1 Peter 1: 13-25 By Louie Marsh, 6-11-2023   Last slide – success.   1) Set my HOPE.   “13Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. (1 Peter 1:13, ESV)   “13May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” (Romans 15:13, ESV)   2) Set my GOAL.    14As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, 15but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”  (1 Peter 1:14-16, ESV)   “1I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:1–2, ESV)   3) Set my WORLDVIEW.   17And if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according to each one's deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile, 18knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, 19but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. (1 Peter 1:17-19, ESV)   4) Set my ASSURANCE.   20He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you 21who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. . (1 Peter 1:17-19, ESV)   “13These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and greeted them from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. 14For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. 15If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return. 16But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.” (Hebrews 11:13–16, ESV)     5) Set my love HIGHER.   “15When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.”” (John 21:15, ESV)   22Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart, 23since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God;  . (1 Peter 1:22-24, ESV)   6) Set my FOUNDATION.    24for “All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, 25but the word of the Lord remains forever.” And this word is the good news that was preached to you.” (1 Peter 1:13–25, ESV)   “16All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16–17, ESV)

Kelly Williams Hale is our host today on Celebrating God's Grace. Today's message continues the conversation on LOVE and how we can activate the extravagant and abundant life God has planned for us. Even when we're frustrated, angry, hurt, or disappointed LOVE never stops. Every day can be a day of love. That's literally our job, assigned by God: to love others. We're in a love relationship with Jesus and He wants us to be abundant. He wants us to prosper.   “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)   ***  Hi there, and welcome to the Women World Leaders Podcast.  My name is Kelly Williams Hale and I'm your host today on Celebrating God's Grace. I'm an author, speaker and coach leading women through inner healing and intimacy work. I teach women how to overcome self-doubt proving their worth and step into the purpose and plan God has for them.  Before I get started on today's message, I have a question… Do you celebrate Valentine's Day? And while I do have some thoughts about the commercialism of this holiday, I do love that (for at least one day) – so many people are intentionally choosing LOVE.  Transparently, I've not been one to plan ahead or make a big deal out of Valentine's Day. In fact, I didn't pick up cards and chocolate for the boys in my family until that evening!  But my husband has always been one to celebrate and I was blessed to wake up to flowers, chocolate and cards. He's actually training Austin, my 11 year old, in the fine art of thoughtfulness. That IS special to me… that my son picks out my cards! (meanwhile, I tend to find a fun card from Austin to Dad and just ask him to sign it.  I know, there's def room for improvement!!  And I realized that I look at EVERY DAY as a day of love. That's literally our job, assigned by God. To be like him. To love others… and I want to add: LAVISHLY. This message is titled: Lavish Love – to illustrate the extravagant, abundant, overflowing love he has for us.  He loved us so much he sent his son to be crucified. To die that horrendous physical death – for us. Giving us the opportunity to be reconciled with the Father himself.  That's LAVISH LOVE.  And so today, I want to dig a little deeper into what that means. What does it mean to be lavishly loved, and… to GIVE lavish love?  LAVISH is defined as:sumptuously rich, elaborate, or luxurious, bestow something in generous or extravagant quantities on.  I love sharing definitions. Often, the synonyms resonate with me and broadens my vocabulary.  So let's look at what Merriam Webster says love means: an intense feeling of deep affection, a great interest and pleasure in something. feel deep affection for (someone).like or enjoy very much.  Now that we have a head knowledge – what Lavish Love means “technically” – how do we apply it?  The questions to ponder and sort of contemplate is: what do we love?  Who do we love? What do we love? How do we show love?  And a very big question: how are we about receiving love? What does the bible tell us about God? He is literally love.  1 John 4:7-8 7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.  The highest form of energy, pure love.  And if we're created in his image, we also have this capacity to BE LOVE. But of course, we live in a world that challenges that mandate. Wondering how we're supposed to love when our situation is less than perfect. When our neighbor is hosting yet another party with the music blaring at midnight and we have a meeting at 8am. Or when someone pulls into the parking spot we were just about to take. I really shouldn't bring the spouses into the mix… but if you're married, you can probably relate to the many “opportunities” to extend grace in our own households!  Thankfully, in spite of the very real “LIFE” we lead – daily… Jesus COMMANDS us to Love one another. AND he gives us instructions on what that looks like.  I'd like to share (1 Corinthians 13:4-8…) – from the Passion Translation.  Love is large and incredibly patient. Love is gentle and consistently kind to all. It refuses to be jealous when blessing comes to someone else. Love does not brag about one's achievements nor inflate its own importance. Love does not traffic in shame and disrespect, nor selfishly seek its own honor. Love is not easily irritated or quick to take offense. Love joyfully celebrates honesty and finds no delight in what is wrong. Love is a safe place of shelter, for it never stops believing the best for others. Love never takes failure as defeat, for it never gives up. Love never stops loving. It extends beyond the gift of prophecy, which eventually fades away. It is more enduring than tongues, which will one day fall silent. Love remains long after words of knowledge are forgotten.  What does this tell us: even when we're frustrated, angry, hurt, or disappointed LOVE never stops… loving. It remains long after those words are forgotten.  We are called to love even when we don't FEEL LIKE IT.  Let's revisit the questions I asked earlier: Who do we love? God has given us people in our lives to love. Our families. Mom. Dad. Siblings. Husband. Children. We also have our church family. Co-workers, maybe. Neighbors. Etc.  What do we love? This is obviously different for everyone. We can love our home. We can love where we live. We can love our garden. We can love our family trips. Or our women's bible study. Many, many things. Which I believe are ALL blessings from God.  How do we show love? This one may be more nuanced. Since God created us so differently – from the tip of our nose to nail on our toes, he's given us all unique qualities, how we think, what we like, our very personality.  And to throw a little wrench in this, most people don't do things the way we do them! Anybody ask your kids to fold the laundry or load the dishwasher – and then go back and do it the quote unquote “right way”?!?!? Ephesians 4:29 2Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.  Did you catch that? So that it will benefit those who listen.  This is important with conversation. But also applicable with how we show love. AND how we RECEIVE LOVE.  There's actually a book about this – related to LOVE. The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate by Gary Chapman.  It was written for couples, but I think we can all benefit from it.  Here are the 5 love languages:  ·         Love language #1: Words of affirmation. ... ·         Love language #2: Acts of service. ... ·         Love language #3: Gifts. ... ·         Love language #4: Quality time. ... ·         Love language #5: Physical touch.  The book is about everybody's different way of receiving love.  Because a lot of times we will show love in a way that we tend to want to receive it.  When we can identify what love language the special people in our life speak, we can show love in a way that will mean more to them.  Now here's the big question: how do WE receive love? How do we feel about receiving in general? As women we're hardwired to be nurturers… We tend to be givers. A lot of times it's our way of loving others.  And so, we love others and find it easy to give.  But how do we receive love. particularly as it relates to God.  He wants to lavish his love on us. But the question is, are we open to receiving that love for him?  Do we REALLY believe that he loves us? a lot of times our humanness, our experience here on Earth is sort of tainted by how we've received love in the past, like in our formative years, how other people showed love to us.  For me, when I went through my second divorce, my son missed his dad. I know his dad loved him. But when we first split up, he would cancel plans to see Dallas. Obviously, it hurt my son. And so, it was very difficult when I would say “But your dad loves you”.  I didn't want him to equate “love” with someone who wasn't around. Or disappointed him.  And so we can view what love is through that lens of abandonment or rejection.  Where we can question if somebody truly loves us, because our experience around love is that, oh, my dad loved me, but he didn't spend time with me.  We can view God this way too.    The enemy of our soul would like nothing more than to deceive us that way. But we have only to look into scripture to read about God's love for us.  So much so that he forgives us when we sin and mess up. That's grace.  When we think of God's lavish abundant love for us, we will find the compassion, forgiveness and grace for the people in our lives.  When we can activate the Holy Spirit and love others lavishly… the abundant life is available. I believe that's what God wants us to experience while we're here on Earth.  To love others, like Jesus says, the greatest commandment is to love God first, and then love others.  Matthew 22:36-40 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'  And we must love ourselves as well. Now, I don't know about you, but I have girlfriends who are not married, and widows who have lost their sweethearts. And so valentine's day can be very painful. This whole idea about love and gifts and celebrating can be painful when we don't have someone. But what God gave me is that we can love ourselves. It requires us to love ourselves to activate that abundance.  I know for me I lived so much of my life in survival mode. I wasn't even aware of this because of the programming I received as a child.  We can learn how to behave in public and appear like we have it all together. But deep down, we can often feel unlovable. I see this in my son Dallas. Again, because of how people treat us, our experiences, the stories we believe that we're not worthy, even what we've been told. It's very subconscious.  But we can become aware, when we begin to have these voices go through our mind that we are unlovable. We can catch those thoughts and take them captive. The Bible says make them obedient to Christ.  2 Corinthians 10:5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.  When we start noticing those thoughts that don't align with the lavish love God says he has for us, we can CHOOSE a new thought. The TRUTH.  That can help us activate abundance. And honestly activating abundance is really activating the Holy Spirit that lives inside each and every one of us, as Christians, as followers of Christ.  We're in a love relationship with Jesus and He wants us to be abundant. He wants us to prosper. Jeremiah 29:11. For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.   And so when we can love ourselves the way that God does, unconditionally. Loving ourselves becomes a form of worship to Him.

Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable.

First Reading1 CORINTHIANS 6:1-111When one of you has a grievance against a brother, does he dare go to law before the unrighteous instead of the saints? 2Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases? 3Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more, matters pertaining to this life! 4If then you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who are least esteemed by the church? 5I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between members of the brotherhood, 6but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers? 7To have lawsuits at all with one another is defeat for you. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded? 8But you yourselves wrong and defraud, and that even your own brethren. 9Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor sexual perverts, 10nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.GospelLUKE 6:12-1912In these days he went out to the mountain to pray; and all night he continued in prayer to God. 13And when it was day, he called his disciples, and chose from them twelve, whom he named apostles; 14Simon, whom he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip, and Bartholomew, 15and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot, 16and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor. 17And he came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; 18and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured. 19And all the crowd sought to touch him, for power came forth from him and healed them all.

Shift! Part 6: Shift My Thinking by Louie Marsh, 7-10-2022 1) Biblical thinking is focused on Jesus & HIS WORD.   Starts with and is focused on Christ and the truth. Jesus is the way, truth and life, therefore our thinking process must always begin with Him, His Word and truth.   “6Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6, ESV)   “31So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”” (John 8:31–32, ESV)   2) My mind desperately needs to be RENEWED.   The Bible teaches us that our minds need to be renewed (Rom. 12:2) because our minds are naturally hostile to God (Rom. 8:5-8) and cannot please God.   “2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:2, ESV)   Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will know what God wants you to do, and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect his will really is. Romans 12:2 (NLT)   “5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. 8Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.” (Romans 8:5–8, ESV)   3) I can and must CONTROL & FOCUS my thoughts.   We can control what we think about (Phil. 4:8; Heb. 3:1) with the help of God.   “7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” (Philippians 4:7–8, ESV)   “1Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,” (Hebrews 3:1, ESV)   4) I should let Jesus SHAPE my life & thoughts.   We must take hold of our thoughts and begin to think the way God wants us to think (2 Cor. 10:5).   “5We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,” (2 Corinthians 10:5, ESV)   We use our powerful God-tools for smashing warped philosophies, tearing down barriers erected against the truth of God, fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the structure of life shaped by Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5 (MSG)   5) What should my thought process be?   Check with GOD,   “6do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” (Philippians 4:6, ESV)   Check with GOD'S WORD,   Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalms 119:105 (ESV)   Check with MANY COUNSELORS   Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed. Proverbs 15:22 (NIV)   “22Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.” (Proverbs 15:22, ESV)   “6for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory.” (Proverbs 24:6, ESV)   “24Your testimonies are my delight; they are my counselors.” (Psalm 119:24, ESV)   Focus on the TRUTH –   always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3:7 (ESV) The 7 Hat Approach –   Order In Which I Reveal the Hats Objective Positive Negative Creative Intuitive Process Six Thinking Hats A Proposal Analysis Tool by Edward de Bono1 The proposal is read out and then everyone puts one the following hats in turn: 1.     The White Hat is the information hat. This covers facts, figures, information needs and gaps. People can ask for more information or data to help analyze the proposal. 2.     The Red Hat represents emotions. This covers intuition, feelings and emotions. People have to say how this proposal makes them feel emotionally: scared, threatened, excited, energized, etc. It is important to get the feelings expressed, as they can be hidden reasons why people would oppose or support a proposal. 3.     The Yellow Hat is the hat of optimism. This is the logical positive: why something will work and why it will offer benefits. Everyone in turn has to say what is good about the proposal. Even if you think the idea stinks you have to find some good points and redeeming qualities about it. 4.     The Black Hat is the pessimism hat. This is the hat of judgment and caution. Everyone has to find fault with the idea. Even if it was your idea and you are very proud of it you have to point out some drawbacks and disadvantages. 5.     The Green Hat is the hat of growth and possibilities. This is the hat of creativity, alternatives, proposals, what is interesting, provocations and changes. Everyone has to suggest ways in which the idea could be adapted or improved to make it work better. 6.     The Blue Hat is the process hat. This is the overview or process control hat. It looks not at the subject itself but at the 'thinking' about the subject. It is used to check if the process is working well. When you wear it, you discuss whether you are using the method in the most effective way.   SHOW MESSY PIC!   7th Hat – Faith in God!   For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, "The righteous shall live by faith." Romans 1:16-17 (ESV)

You shall not add to it or take from it.” (Deuteronomy 12:30–32, ESV)   “7“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. 8He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.” 9The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? 10“I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”” (Jeremiah 17:7–10, ESV)   “28And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. 29They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32Though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.” (Romans 1:28–32, ESV)   “1I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:1–2, ESV)

Claudine's Bites of Inspiration

I pray that as you listen to this broadcast, hope and Strength will Arise in your spirit. Here are a few scriptures to encourage and strengthen you. But He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you [My lovingkindness and My mercy are more than enough—always available—regardless of the situation]; for [My] power is being perfected [and is completed and shows itself most effectively] in [your] weakness.” Therefore, I will all the more gladly boast in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ [may completely enfold me and] may dwell in me. 2 Cor. 12:9 AMPThe LORD will protect them and preserve their lives; he will make them happy in the land; he will not abandon them to the power of their enemies. Psalms 41:2Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will help you; I will hold on to you with My righteous right hand.” Isaiah‬ ‭41:10‬ ‭HCSB‬‬“Do not fear [anything], for I am with you; Do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you; I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].'” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭41:10‬ ‭AMP‬‬For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38‭-‬39 KJV

Is retirement all it's cracked up to be? Yes, a new study says it makes you happier and healthier. In this episode, we focus on retirement and it's many benefits, particularly retirement and RVing. Plus our usual tips, RV news, Tech news and destination reports. [spp-player] Complete shownotes for Episode 68 of Roadtreking: The RV Travel Podcast Mike and Jennifer share their New Year RV resolutions, their immediate travel plans and a look ahead to a year of RV stories from across North America [spp-timestamp time="2:43"] JENNIFER'S TIP OF THE WEEK: RV Travel Map with State Stickers If you are like Mike and me, you love keeping track of the different states and Provinces you visit in your RV. For us – since we started our RV travels nearly five years ago – that works out to 38 different states. [spp-timestamp time="12:33"] I've seen folks who have maps on their RVs that show where they've been so when we found one on Amazon, we ordered it. The one we got is called the RV & Travel USA State Sticker Map and it shows each state in vibrant solid colors. It's printed on durable, premium 3M automotive vinyl/ You can put it on an inside wall or outside. In our case, on the rear door of our RV. It measures 12.7" x 19.6", so it's not gaudy or too big. You get the map on one sheet and the individually cut self adhesive states to apply on the outline of the states on the base map. It's all very simple, though you want to take your time sticking the states on the mark, lining them up on the outline. We are very happy with it. The vinyl is of excellent quality. We've long wanted one like this, just a simple map with bright colors. It costs $35 and is shipped free. It's available at http://amzn.to/1R1QDe0 READER QUESTIONS AND FEEDBACK Mike answers reader questions about streaming video in the RV and using a 50 amp to 30 amp power adapter and why he and Jennifertraded up to a Roadtrek CS Adventurous XL this year [spp-timestamp time="15:56"] RV NEWS - RV saves big money over traditional vacations A follow up study confirms the findings of the Recreational Vehicle Institute of America that RV travel saves money. [spp-timestamp time="28:54"] TRAVELING TECH TIPS - Apps to help you stay organized in 2016 The beginning of the year is a great time to get organized and a number of great apps can help you make 2016 your best organized year yet! [spp-timestamp time="33:58"] Any.do wins lots of praise for its ease-of-use and number of smart features, including the ability to simply add tasks with your voice. You can share lists with friends, family, or anyone else. You can also sync to the cloud for accessing tasks on any iOS or Android device. You can even add tasks by sending an email.
