Bible Study Verse
Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do, do
your
work
heartily, as for the Lord rather than for
men." (NASV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thoughts
Do you ever sense the pressure to
perform? At work
we are not supposed to have "bad hair
days", but we do
from time-to-time. Even on fishing or
hunting
expeditions, there is that slight pressure to
perform--to successfully land a large fish,
or bag
some impressive game. We also want to
be "up" for
our friends, to encourage them, not to bring
them down. The harsh reality is, we aren't
always "up"
or at our prime 24/7. This is also true in
our relationship with
the Lord. We want to be at our best for
Him, but we
aren't 100 percent of the time. Do our real
friends forsake us
when we let them down?
Does God condemn us when we let Him
down? The
answer is, No! (TH)
Action Point
Keep relating to God, your family and your
friends no
matter what the circumstances. We all are
in the same boat when it
comes to good days and bad days. Let's
extend
grace towards family members and friends
who may not be doing too well. We might
be
the one who
needs grace the
next time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sportsmen's Tip of the Day
Always have a roll of duct tape or, better
yet, Gorilla
tape handy. There is no end to how you
can repair
things with that stuff. I have patched
inflatable boats
and even mountain bike tubes with this
incredible
water-proof tape. It's not a permanent fix,
but it may get you
home.
