CHOOSING TO BE=ON JESUS' TEAM

 

CHOOSING TO BE=ON JESUS’ TEAM

 

REMEMBER when=you were YOUNG

And you=were

Choosing up teams=and

You didn’t want to be

The LAST PLAYER picked

 

Well=on Jesus’ team

WE are all=the

FIRST PLAYER PICKED

CHOOSING TO BE=ON JESUS’ TEAM

 

“Whoever is NOT with me=

Is against me=and WHOEVER

Does not gather with me=scatters”                                                                                     Luke 11:23

 

Some people THINK

That their faith is

A PRIVATE THING=but that is

NOT necessarily true

 

Jesus makes it CLEAR

To us=that our faith

Is not always comfortable

 

We are CHOSEN

To be an EXAMPLE

For all living things

 

CHOOSE TO BE=ON JESUS’ TEAM

Choose to be AN EXAMPLE

For others

LIVING in faith too

 

“I have set you

AN EXAMPLE=that you should do

As I have done for you”                                                                                                       John 13:15

 

“Don’t let anyone-

Look down on you=because you are young

 

But set an EXAMPLE

For those believers=in speech=

In conduct=in love=in faith

And in purity”                                                                                                                    1 Timothy 4:12

 

“FOLLOW MY EXAMPLE=

As I follow=THE EXAMPLE of Christ”                                                                                1 Corinthians 11:1

 

IF our faith=is real=

If we TRULY BELIEVE

In Jesus=we have no choice

But to=CHOOSE TO BE=

ON JESUS’ TEAM

 

We have no choice=

But to LEAD OTHERS

To Jesus=THROUGH our words and actions

 

CHRISTIANITY is not=a spectator sport

Our faith=must compel us

To ACT in faith

 

CHOOSE TO BE=ON JESUS’ TEAM

Choose to set AN EXAMPLE

 

“In everything=

SET THEM AN EXAMPLE

By doing=what is good”                                                                                                             Titus 2:7

 

“To this=you were called

Because Christ suffered

For you

 

Leaving you AN EXAMPLE

That you should follow

In his steps”                                                                                                                                   1 Peter 2:21

 

Dear Lord=we PRAY

That we CHOOSE to be

ON YOUR TEAM!

And do whatever=you want us

To do

 

We are

CHOOSING TO BE=ON YOUR TEAM!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER LEADING=forever loving=Holy Father God!
