Serving Your Community

Great question for each of us today....in the Greater Montgomery area.
 
How is your church serving your community...out side the walls of the church?

Isaiah 61:1-4
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to grant to those who mourn in Zion— to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified. They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations.

Let's pray this week that we will all live out Isaiah 61 in our communities.

Praying for ALL Christian churches in the Greater Montgomery area to get out into the community and serve the Lord. The community is where the people are and we are to serve the people of the community.

Love Them Anyway.....

1 John 3:16-18 "This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

Lately, there is controversy all around. If we focus too much on controversy, then you can get unfocused on what the focus of being a follower of Christ is....

TODAY, as you go about your day, in the Greater Montgomery area, stay focused on the thing that is most important. Love God, Love Others..to the ends of the earth. 

Leaving you with a great quote credited to Mother Teresa.
Love Anyway..................
