    We all love to do something. God gave Paul a special love and desire to help people mature in their faith in Jesus Christ. He cared deeply that all people would be encouraged and knit together as they followed Jesus. More people would mature in their faith if we took the time to encourage someone today.

    Why do you do what you do? As a Christian, why do you serve God? God wants us to serve him and serve others in all places of our life. Paul served God as best as he could with the goal of presenting every person complete in Christ Jesus. He did this all by relying on God’s power working in him. What is God’s power working in you to do?

    Struggling to feel like you are living right with God? God wants to reconcile you to himself. Without God, we are enemies of God. But because of Jesus’s death, burial, and resurrection God can call us His friend. You no longer need to be bound by works; you can be freed by grace.

    This Christmas we remember that God came to us. He came full of grace and truth. We don’t measure up to God’s perfect standard, but He loves us and forgives us. When we turn to Jesus he receives us even though we don’t deserve it and works in us to make us who He created us to be.

    We finish our series “Songs of the Broken Hearted” talking about an issue at the root of every broken heart – sin. No one has escaped experiencing brokenness in some way, including God. Because of God’s love for guilty sinners, Jesus became sin for us so that we could be made righteous in Him. This ultimate act of love is our reminder forever that God is there for us in our emotional heartache.
