Every day is a challange, however Pastor Kevin's message brings clarity on doing your best to live a blameless life. Got to be there on Sunday to get the whole message. Miss a service miss a lot.
ReplyDeleteWhat a message! We need to let our LOVE overflow into others lives! We cannot operate with a half full cup! I loved the illustration that Pastor Kevin used with the water pored into a glass and when he started pouring it into peoples hands to show how our love for others should be demonstrated. We cannot be satisfied with the Love we have shown, we must challenge ourselves to go to the next Level.
ReplyDeleteJesus Help me show your love this week in everything i do and may many be affected by this! In Jesus name AMEN!!!!
what a huge challenge again this week in our quest to have victory, another great piece that will propel us to intentionally love in humility,
ReplyDeleteI thank God for how he he is using our pastors to build our faith every week,I pray for the strength to walk out these truths
Incredible Challenge to love at a new level!
ReplyDeleteI am definitely going to take this challenge and apply it to my life asap!
Great message Pastor Kevin!
Love is serving with Humility, Love is not a feeling, Love is not a results in a feeling, Love is a Choice!!!( Pastor Kevin) You are so right Pastor Kevin. We all should take this challenge and learn from Jesus. love one another as he would!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat challenge...Love being a committment and not a feeling really hit me...feelings of love come out of being committed to someone. I am choosing to serve others with humility...Thank-you Pastors Kevin and Pam for giving challenging and life changing messages week after week!
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing Pastors we have. This is both an awesome and challenging word together. The world needs to see our love overflow, but the enemy is always bringing distractions. We need to mature and overlook our current problems and pride to live a lifestyle of love. Man, what a challenging year. If you really wanna grow, HWC is definetely the place to be.
ReplyDeleteThank God for Pastor Kevin Begley who can open up that word and dish out some real meat! Love here in this text means to "serve others". Isn't it so true how we can sometimes love only the ones we like or those we can benefit from being their friend. But God wants us to serve ALL! Amen to that!
ReplyDeleteAs Pastor Kevin reminded us, we can't wait until everything is perfect in our life to start loving others by serving with humility. There is never a time when everything in our life is going be perfect - we will all experience challenges in one area or another. The point is, the time to start is NOW! Love now. Serve now. Give now. Do it with heart and increase in it. What a timely reminder! Thank you Jesus!
ReplyDeleteI take the challenge this week onwards to aggressively love others with what I have.
Well, it's Thursday and time to get ready for Life Group. I hope that each of you is compelled to join us at HWC this coming Sunday. What you will experience will push you right into your future. What are you waiting for? Let Pastor's Kevin and Pam Begley know you are coming. Post a comment right here... right now!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate having a pastor and a co-pastor, who stand as equals, seeking God's will and direction. The way that they speak WHOLE TRUTH direct from the scriptures and clearly show us the relevancy of such in my life, makes a true and tangible difference. I am challenged to grow and become a better person. This Sunday I was specifically struck by the definition of "blameless" meaning "Intentionally living in obedience to God’s Word". The word intentionally... "done by intention or design" has deep implications and is tremendously freeing if one understands that, as Pastor has stated before "My success is my choice and my choice is my success". I must choose the intent of my actions. Until next time, peace be with you. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was a revelation for me when Pastor Kevin connected being blameless with loving others. I am excited about the challenge to expand my love. We are blessed to have Pastors who push us to the next level.
