Reminders

A couple brief reminders: sorry for the repetition (not really, it's a teacher thing)

Jesus was the most evil sensitive person who ever lived--and the most compassionate. He knew the intolerable suffering evil produces in the lives of human beings now and for eternity. Do I look at those in the grip of sin and feel a deep compassion or do I have a judgmental attitude of self-righteousness?

Earthly pleasures were never designed to satisfy but to make us long for the life that can completely satisfy. Where am I investing my energy in search for satisfaction?

Foolish men reject the authority of God's Word. Who is the authority in my life's decisions?

I am God's servant, not His adviser. Does my life show that I am delighted in His control or that I'm trying to take control myself by relying on my own wisdom?

We are the light of the world in a great darkness. We are the salt of the earth in a world whose natural tendency is toward rottenness. Does my Christian walk provoke questions?
