Being Kind....

Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right. For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people. 
1 Peter 2:13-15 (NIV)

Have you ever thought about this...... when you or I get a ticket or do something wrong and the authorities step in to give us a consequence... HOW we handle things could change THEIR lives. Wonder what would happen this week, in the Greater Montgomery area, if we have ANY interactions with "those in authority" that we act toward them in a way that would "stop them in their tracks" and SEE Jesus? The next time we get a ticket, WE could be a link to THAT officer becoming a believer. The next time we hear or see a politician ranting about something unbibilical, why not write that person a letter expressing our concern in a kind way. What if our words could change one person in authorities life???
You and I can plant seeds of god's kindness and respect to those "in charge" of our city, our state and our country.
This week.....let's challenge each other to see our city, state and national leaders the way God sees them..HIS wonderful, beautiful creation who NEEDS to be reconciled to the Father. In fact, seeing EVERY human being that way ALWAYS changes the way we relate to them.
".....by doing(and saying good things)we silence those who are not for God's way".......hmmmmmmmmmm!!!

"Ephesians 4:32 " Instead, be kind and tender-hearted to one another, and forgive one another, as God has forgiven you through Christ"



PRAY FOR the GREATER MONTGOMERY area!!
