This weekend, while seeking the Lord’s help for my heart prior to a meeting some fellow believers, my devotions brought these verses from Romans 12…..
3 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. 4 For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, 5 so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. …
9 Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. 10 Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. 11 Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. 12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer… [ESV, emphasis added]
Isn’t God’s Word simple and clear, for those who have ears to hear? My soul needed this Word that day (and will need it again and again). Thank You Lord, for Your Word — and for Your grace.
