WAKE UP TO THE NOW Matthew 5:38-6:15

HAVING A SPIRIT FILLED LIFE FOR 2012 IS THE ONLY RESOLUTION A BELIEVER NEEDS TO MAKE.

Matthew 5:38-6:15

v.45 Jesus: Pray for those who hurt you – Then be true children of your heavenly Father.

Mat. 6: The Lord’s Prayer. Sit up on the side of your bed in the morning and say it to yourself before standing to start your day.

Be optimistic but realistic. And have goals.

Eternity is the now that does not pass away. – Augustine

Monasticism could be most succinctly described as an effort to live in the now. – David Steinld-Rast

Age quad agis – do what you’re doing.

Obedience is not constraint, it is loving listening, and readiness to respond.

We are so geared to what is useful (doing) that we forget the meaningful, what gives our life joy and depth and value.

Wake up to the now!
