Positive Strokes

 

June 26

We all need encouragement.

We are attending a new church in Osprey. The pastor is inexperienced. One day we agree not to second-guess this young enthusiastic pastor's sermons but to be part of his support team.

 

At the next service we sit in the second row smiling.(Not my gifting) We beam during the young pastor’s message. He pauses, and says, "At times I see the radiance of God in other people, like right now I see God in the faces of Mal and Joy." 

 

Go Figure!  

 "For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable." (Romans 11:29)

 

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only

what is helpful for building up others that it my benefit those who listen."

(Ephesians 4:29)
