Living a Life that Matters

  1. Live in tandem with God.
    1. Matthew 6:1 - Be especially careful when you are trying to be good so that you don't make a performance out of it.  It might be good theater, but the God who made you won't be applauding.
    2. Work to please God, not man.

 

  1. Give to live.
    1. Mark 8:35 - If you try to keep your life for yourself, you will lose it.  But if you give your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will find true life.

 

  1. Eliminate excuses.
    1. John 5:7 - "I can't sir," the sick man said, "for I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred up.  While I am trying to get there, someone else always gets in ahead of me."

 

  1. Start small.
    1. Matthew 10:42 - And if you give even a cup of cold water to one of the least of my followers, you will surely be rewarded."
    2. 1 Chronicles 28:9 - … the Lord sees every heart and understands and knows every plan and thought.

 

  1. Serve in your zone.
    1. 1 Peter 4:10 - God has given gifts to each of you from His great variety of spiritual gifts.  Manage them well so that God's generosity can flow through you.
    2. 1 Corinthians 12:4 - Now there are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but it is the same Holy Spirit who is the source of them all.

 

  1. Live beyond yourself.
    1. Luke 9:23 - Jesus said to all of them,  "If people want to follow me, they must give up the things they want.  They must be willing to give up their lives daily to follow me.
    2. Mark 9:35 - "Anyone who wants to be first must take last place and be the servant of everyone else."
