I’d much rather be helping others Full Time! But….I guess God is not ready for that so… I’ll pray for patience and guidance for His strength and wisdom.
Last time I wrote (just before I left you all in the no blogging darkness…) I was talking about how Home Groups are a way for each one of us to put “Life deposits” into each other. Sharing and caring FOR each other.
Take a look at what Jesus said in John 17:20-21 …. Here…I’ll just save you the time, “I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message.
There is your open invitation. He has openly invited YOU to have an ongoing, deep, meaningful relationship with others, just like He had/has with His Father. Here is a list of what Jesus wants YOU to experience with others…
· Encourage each other
· Support each other
· Love each other
· Defer to each other
· Glorify each other
This is one of the most important instructions Jesus left for us. Do all this so that others will see a difference in you and the people you surround yourself with “so that the world will believe you sent me.” Then they will want what you have. This is one of man’s most common natures. He wants what others have if… they see that it will improve their life too. Am I right? Have I hit a warm spot?
Home Groups should be incubators of faith. Faith in God, faith in His Son, faith in His followers. “Living Life Together” in faith and love.
Sooooo... If you haven’t joined a Home Group…NOW is the time to go for it. At Southbrook Church, we have many groups to choose from. Click here and check out your options. Or…. Email me at jforeman@southbrookchurch.com and I’ll help you find a group.
