Last night at youth, our pastor talked about being brothers and sisters in God's family. I've been pondering how much we need to fight for one another, and be there for each other; by respecting and protecting each other. I'm thankful to serve under a pastor that challenges our teens to a higher level of character, compassion and unity....the messages are always also for me!
Watch your life and doctrine closely.
Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourselves and your hearers.
Do not rebuke an older man harshly, but exhort him as if he were your father.
Treat younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, with absolute purity.
1 Timothy 4:15-5:2
May I not loose focus of the primary reasons you have put me on this earth in this place and in this time Daddy! To love you with all my heart, soul, strength and mind, and to love others as you have first loved me. I pray that I will never become comfortable with status-quo, but will keep reaching out and fighting for my brothers and sisters in Christ!
