CONSISTENCY

Are you consistent

In your love of God

And in

Your love of others

By that-I mean

Do you love every day

Not just

The days when you feel good

Or-just when-you feel like it

Our Lord said

The people of this world

Are smarter

Than the people of God

In just one way

They are consistent

In serving themselves

They are consistent

In their selfishness

We are living in this world

But we have to make a choice

Are we living

By the world’s values

Or-are we living by God’s values

“No one can serve two masters

Either he will hate the one

And love the other

Or he will be devoted

To the one

And despite the other

You CANNOT serve both GOD and money”                                     Matthew 6:24

So we know

We ALL have to make a choice

“For where your treasure is

There your heart will also be”                                                   Matthew 6:21

The people of this world

Are consistent

In serving themselves

ARE WE—the people of God

CONSISTENT in serving the Lord

Ps        WITNESS        4-13-13

            In Luke 12-Jesus tells the story about a rich fool who has an over abundance

            Of crops and desires to store them-he says to himself:

    

            “You have plenty of good things stored up for many years

              Take life easy; eat, drink, and be merry”

             But God says to him:

             “You fool-this very night your life will be demanded from you

               Then who will get what you have prepared for himself”

“Serve wholeheartedly

As if you were serving the Lord, not men”                                       Ephesians 6:7
