Devoted or Divisive

Happy Friday, Friends!

I hope and trust this post finds you all having a great day as a glorious new day begins to dawn in my Sweet Home Alabama! I am so excited to live this day…I have never seen this one before!

 

Last Sunday our Executive Pastor, Adam Gooch, preached an absolutely phenomenal message. You can watch the entire sermon – and I would strongly encourage you to do so!!! – by clicking on this link https://www.igotofaith.com/sermons/frankenchurch-aysxg

 

Now, two things in full transparency:

1.      I am completely going to take Pastor Adam out of context. Our sermon series is about the church and how Jesus called us all to be one. I am not going to talk about the church – I am going to apply his incredible words to you, me, and how we live our lives daily.

2.     This is going to be a very short message!

 

Pastor Adam noted that we are either devoted, which he defined as love, loyalty, or enthusiasm for a person, activity, or cause, or we are divisive. We can’t be both. We are either bringing together or pulling apart. Which will it be?

 

To close – told you it was going to be short! – I am going to share a scripture and a quote from Pastor Adam.

 

Proverbs 6:16-19

There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

 

And then the quote that the moment I heard it I knew what Happy Friday was going to be:

 

“It’s hard to throw stones at someone you are praying for.” – Adam Gooch
