September 22, 2019 – “God let us be like Barnabas who was a good man and filled with the Holy Spirit and spent his entire ministry encouraging others. He also was not envious or jealous when the leadership of the Antioch missions’ team fell to his co-worker Paul. Very few in the church today would have been so charitable. He also is probably the main reason we have the Gospel of Mark. May his tribe increase! God bless the encouragers!” S. E. Trail
My prayer today for us would be for a life spent in building others up and not blowing them up!
2 Corinthians 1:3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; 4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. KJV
“Pete and Larry had not seen each other in many years. Now they had a long talk trying to fill in the gap of those years by telling about their lives. Finally Pete invited Larry to visit him in his new apartment. "I have a wife and three kids and I'd love to have you visit us." "Great. Where do you live?" "Here's the address. And there's plenty of parking behind the apartment. Park and come around to the front door, kick it open with your foot, go to the elevator and press the button with your left elbow, then enter! When you reach the sixth floor, go down the hall until you see my name on the door. Then press the doorbell with your right elbow and I'll let you in." "Good. But tell me...what is all this business of kicking the front door open, then pressing elevator buttons with my right, then my left elbow?" Pete Answered, "Surely, you're not coming empty-handed."
