There is a huge gap between what we believe and what we do. The kingdom of God comes as we live on mission in community, walk in God's power, and respond to Him without timid hesitation.

As we spread God's Kingdom and seek change, we will encounter resistance: from public opinion, from our own feelings of fear, even from family. Jesus always gives us the steps to follow so that we can keep moving forward.

Money is a powerful tool, and God wants us to handle it with wisdom and practicality. It is, after all, His money, intended to be managed to express generosity to those He loves.

Raising a family, it is easy to stay busy with good things. But we cannot breathe life into our loved ones if we have not first let God breathe into us, and that happens as we spend time with Him in worship and intimacy.

Jesus is not looking merely for converts, but for disciples who will follow Him in all circumstances. Do I allow my family ties, my possessions, my surroundings to distract me from full dedication to Jesus?

As representatives of the bountiful love of Jesus, we should learn to be generous without expecting recognition or reward. The all-in servant of Jesus lives for the next world and the approval of the Father.
