Just a few thoughts

Reading from Nov. 18, 2009
Ps. 124; 2 Cor. 11-13

2 Cor. 12:15a reads ~ "I will most gladly spend and be expended for your souls..."

This reminds me of Paul's extreme love for his countrymen. In an earlier statement Paul shares how if it were possible he wished that he could be accursed so that his brethren that do not know the Lord Jesus could know him.

Now that is what I call LOVE

R U willing to spend and be spent to that extent ? ? ?
For the unchurched ? ? ?

Don't forget we are talking ETERNITY here ! ! !


2 Cor. 13:3 reads ~ "since you are speaking for proof of the Christ who speaks in me, . . . "
Just another reminder that God is vocal and desires to speak to you/me directly.

2 Cor. 13:5 reads ~ "Test yourselves to see if you are in the faith; examine yourselves! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you -- unless indeed you fail the test?"
Every time I read this verse I think about the people that know me BEST, and I think about this question:
What would they say about me in relationship to this test?

Would they say ~ Yes Indeed Joey White Passes the Test?

Would they say ~ Yes Jesus Christ is Living In and Through Joey White?

What about you?
