The Lord is raising up harvesters to labor in the fields. He's raising us up together to go out into the fields and see souls saved and disciples brought to maturity.

God desires for his church to be fruitful. In Acts we see a beautiful picture of what this looks like. Acts unfolds for us so many principles and examples of what it takes to be fruitful.

The generosity of the church and it's saints

The scripture instructs us to rid ourselves of anxious thinking, however, that is not enough. We must replace anxious thinking with a whole new mindset that is governed by peace.

God wants us to live life with peace in our hearts, free from anxiety. When we experience this peace it spills over into every area of our lives.

The mindset of those who are mature, is an attitude that persistently presses forward and upward, not considering what is behind. Stride after stride running for the prize that is in Christ Jesus.

When we press forward into our relationship with Jesus, we realize our call to fulfill His purpose.

If we will fulfill the call upon out lives it will be because we have conformed ourselves to His death. Only then can we rely upon His righteousness to live the life He has called us to live.

Only when we live selfless lives can we be truly free. Paul gives examples of a selflessness in the lives of Timothy and Epaphroditus.
