Be clear minded and alert. Being clear minded is linked with the hope we have.

Are you ready to Endure?

To keep making Jesus known?

And can you do it with great patience?

We are called to be a people of unity and consistency but when you have unity and consistency battles are going to start.

Be intentional, know your weaknesses and know your enemy.

The enemy opposes us because :

1. I bring pleasure to God.

2. He is powerless to attack God.

3. He wants to prevent supernatural assistance.

Jesus is the only one who can really transform our pain.

Will you invite Jesus into your story?

Will you invite Him into your pain?

Will you allow God to use your transformed pain to transform others?

Embracing the Father's Heart (Part 1) / David & Kris Toyne by Grace Community Church

David and Kris continue on from this morning's talk, looking at the cycle of healing when dealing with difficult relationships with mothers and fathers.

There are three types of people who follow God:

1. When it interests them

2. Out of obligation (religion)

3. To the very end.

Mark took a leap of faith to uproot and move into inner-city Craigavon to work alongside kids whose life aspirations would normally be dictated by their class. When the church moves in, things happen.

We hear a lot about the 'Father Heart of God' but we forget the significance of the Mother Heart of God.

God brings comfort and nourishes us like a Mother.

Genesis 1:26-27

Isaiah 66:11-13

Matthew 23:27

Do good to all people especially to those who belong to the family of believers.(Galations 6:10)
