Good Morning,
We are still in Waco, Texas, and it is still hot.
I read the following today and wanted to share. From The Sower:
HOW MUCH GOOD SHOULD WE HAVE?
It was the first parent-teacher conference of the year. Mrs. Adams was a bit fearful as she entered her son’s classroom. Seated across from her son’s teacher she did not know what to expect.
“Mrs. Adams,” she began, “it is a delight to have your son as a student in my class. He is so good!”
“My son?” gasped Mrs. Adams. She was shocked beyond belief.
“Yes. Charles is a model student, “ the teacher continued.
Then, turning to her son, Mrs. Adams said to Charles, “Your teacher said that you are a good student. Even a model student. Why can’t you be good at home?”
“Well, Mom,” he replied slowly, “I only got so much goodness in me and I decided to use it in school.”
Goodness is an expression of “God-like-ness” that should reside inside of every believer and find its way outside of us in showing God’s grace to others. God-like-ness should come easily, naturally and constantly in our relationships with others.
As we become more of who God wants us to be, we must allow Him to move freely in us and through us. As we sense His love flooding into our hearts, showing God-like-ness should not be something we force ourselves to do. Rather, it is something we do without even thinking about it because we are a child of God.
Scripture for Today:
Galatians 6:10
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.
LaVon and I are truly thankful to God for each of you. Thank you for your continual support and interest in our ministry by investing yourself in many ways as partners with us: by prayer, e-mails, phone calls and your financial gifts. Without any of these we could not continue what God has called us to do and that is to share the living water with the world through the RV ministry.
Have a great day, love you, pass it on,
Don
