BECOMING A GIFT TO OTHERS
BECOMING A GIFT TO OTHERS
Are you a GIFT
To others-
With your life?
With your personality?
If not=HOW do you
Become one?
This Holy week=decide to
MAKE CHRIST your model=
Decide to follow him-
With the ACTIONS
Of your life
“I have given you
A MODEL to follow
So that as I
Have done for you
You should also do” John 13:15
Today is a GLORIOUS FEAST=
The feast of Holy Thursday=
It is the day
Of the EUCHARIST
The day
For all MINISTRIES=
And the day
Of the washing of the feet
MOST of all=it is
The day to FOLLOW Christ=
And to take on self-giving
TAKE Jesus as your model=
Become a GIFT to others
With your life
“For the wages of sin
Is death
But the GIFT OF GOD
Is eternal life
In Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 6:23
“But each of you
Has your OWN GIFT
From God
One has this GIFT-
Another has that” 1 Corinthians 7:7
“For it is by grace-
You have been saved
Through faith--------
And it is NOT from yourselves
It is the GIFT OF GOD--------
Not by works-
So that no one can boast” Ephesians 2:8
Your life to you
Is a gift FROM GOD=
Use it as a gift=
Grace=and BLESSING for others
Take Christ as your MODEL=
Be a GIFT TO OTHERS
Jesus had COMPASSION=He
Always LISTENED to others=
Be compassionate=
Use your life
To HELP OTHERS
Be a GIFT TO OTHERS=
Take Christ as your MODEL
Jesus BLESSED the CHILDREN=
And kept going
When he was tired
He turned the other cheek
And always FORGAVE
Take Jesus as YOUR MODEL=
BE A GIFT-to others
“And so you became
A MODEL
To all the believers
In Macedonia=and Achaia” 1 Thessalonians 1:7
“We did this
Not because we
Do not have the right
To such help
But in order
To offer ourselves
AS A MODEL
For you to imitate” 2 Thessalonians 3:9
This Holy Thursday
Look at your life=
From the standpoint of Jesus
And BECOME A GIFT=
A model for all others
(A gift of grace and a BLESSING)
In Jesus' name=and in the name of our FATHER GOD=who is PERFECT LOVE
