Words Of Encouragement

"Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace." (Ephesians 4:3) There is a saying that says the fruit of silence is prayer, the fruit of prayer is faith, the fruit of faith is love, the fruit of love is service and the fruit of service is peace. As Christians, we want our lives to be fruitful. That doesn't happen by osmosis nor does it usually happen overnight. It is through the effort of the Holy Spirit working in us to will and to do. And we have to do our part.

God has gifted us for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up (Eph. 4:12). This service is part of our maturing process in the faith. This page has several links that can show you the many areas of possible service that is being made available for you. My prayer for you can be summed up in these verses: "May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus, so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 15:5-6 Amen!
