Time of Grace With Pastor Mike Novotny

If you neglect God’s Word and stop feeding your faith, you can starve it and even kill it. And your words and actions can affect the faith of those around you. God calls us to not take our faith for granted but to live it and show his love and mercy to those around us as we serve him.

When you hear God’s words, listen to them, and then follow his will, no storm can knock you down completely because God is at your side.

Sometimes our children stray, and it’s important for parents to stay close to God in order to deal with the guilt, shame, and frustration that they may feel. Rather than shunning that child, it’s better to love unconditionally, be patient and wait for God’s plan, pray, and speak God’s truth to them in love.

When you have God in the middle of your life, you recognize that everything is his and that he’s been extremely generous with you by sending his Son. Knowing that, it’s a joy, an act of worship, to give back to him and to be generous with others. And when you give with that attitude in your heart, he promises you can’t out give him!

We want to be good managers of what God entrusts us with—live small and within our means, have the discipline to save and wait and say no to ourselves, have a plan and be smart and refuse to cheat or use fraudulent ways to build up our assets. We especially want to build our financial life around God and commit it and our plans to him.

As you consider borrowing money, remember who the blessing of money comes from and manage it wisely. As you think about lending to others, consider how that might affect your friendships. In all of your money decisions, include God so that money can be a blessing to you and not a problem.

As you go about your work, always do your best, serve even the people you don’t like, respect other people’s things as though they were your own, build up and don’t tear down reputations, and be a humble servant as a leader or a follower. And no matter what you do, honor your God in heaven.

You’re not a slave to your anger or captive to your emotions. Redeemed by Christ, you are also empowered by him to choose to let your anger go.
