In reading recently the book by Leroy Eims, 'The LOst Art of Disciple Making', he said this concerning the application of God's Word. Sometimes the simplest things make the deepest impact. Consider what Leroy says, and act upon it: "appling the Word of God is taking a portion of scripture that speaks to your heart, meditating on it, and debeloping practical steps toward making it an integral part of your life."
Recently my prayer and study has led me back to the simplest truth of Christian living, love God and love people. That's it in one short sentence. As a fellowship we've been looking at 1corinthians 13, the famous love chapter. In looking at the description of love in this great chapter we have so far been unable to get any further than this simple truth: love is kind.
Mother Teresa said, "We do not do great things, just small things with great love." It is in the small decisions we make each day and moment to act in love that make Christianity the glory of God manifest in the earth!
