Partners in Hope

Integrity can and will be developed in a person who lives according to the Word of God and whose confidence is in God alone.

We do not have all the answers for our future and perhaps feel insecure about some of the unknowns. God’s promise to us is that if we will follow Him, live with integrity, and do what is right, He will fill our lives with good things and our hearts with joy.

We do a disservice to others when we continually do things for them that, with instruction, they can do for themselves.

How many times have we had to turn around in order to move in the right direction to our destination?  I’ve been known to make U-turns in all sorts of unlikely places. Sometimes passengers in the car with me appreciate those moments and at other times they just shake their head!!  Well, I’d like to talk today about another kind of U-turn that we need to make every time we find ourselves heading in the wrong direction.

We spoke yesterday about doing all the good we can. We know we are created to do good but .... truth be told, it's not always easy to do good, is it? How can we overcome the obstacles we will often face?

John Wesley said this about doing good: Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can. What would that look like for us today?
