BE THERE!

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

ARE YOU SEEKING?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

^1-3The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

What a wonderful evening at FREEDOM last night; a little good food and more important a lot of “good” fun.

It is good when we fellowship with one another.  It gives us a chance to encourage one another, lift each other up, to motivate, bless and inspire each other!

Hebrews 10:24-25 NLT

Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.

Recovery is not an adventure to be taken on alone!

God tells us not to face the battle alone. Along with trusting him and asking the Holy Spirit to empower us, we are to motivate each other and spend time together. We need to choose and resolve that we will help and encourage one another to go on in the Christian life until we live in the light daily praying for each other!

John 12:35-36

Walk by the light you have so darkness doesn't destroy you. If you walk in darkness, you don't know where you're going. As you have the light, believe in the light. Then the light will be within you, and shining through your lives. You'll be children of light.

People struggling with any life-controlling problem—tend to isolate themselves. Coming out of that isolation and allowing others to help and encourage is a vital step in recovery.

Give this the “once over”

Not only should we allow others to help and encourage us—we should encourage them as well.

Philippians 2:4

Agree with each other, love each other, be deep-spirited friends. Don't push your way to the front; don't sweet-talk your way to the top. Put yourself aside, and help others get ahead. Don't be obsessed with getting your own advantage. Forget yourselves long enough to lend a helping hand.

One of God's most precious gifts to us is the opportunity to lean on ... and reach out to ... our brothers and sisters in Christ. Let us be faithful to meet together ... to pray for each other ... to encourage each other ... to admonish each other in love ... to help each other.

I love you all!
