Romans 12:9-12
Hope you have fun plans for your Labor Day. One of the things I realized as we explored what it means (and doesn’t) to live Godly in the world, is how wrong the world has it regarding the Christian life. Rejoicing in hope often includes a LOT of fun. Living and pursuing holiness in this life is the reward we receive when we have the privilege of being God’s child.
If you are fortunate to not have to work today, be sure to include some fun as we enjoy the one day our country officially sanctions a Sabbath. Spend some time in God’s Word. Here are a few passages mentioned yesterday (and a couple we didn’t have time for) you can read and consider for yourself.
2 Peter 1:5-8
Eph 4:32 (but start at verse 17 if you have the time)
2 Tim 3:1-6
1 Peter 2:1&9
Eph 1:18,19
And Rom 12:1-12
It’ll take a little time, but I promise it’ll be worth it. Spread it out over the week if necessary. If you still have some time, consider the devotional by John Piper below. It’s also loaded with encouraging verses.
