Monday-Dare To Be Kind, Faithful

Memory Opportunity:
Colossians 3:12-14 - Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

Kindness (God’s)
Joshua 4:23-24 - The LORD your God did to the Jordan just what he had done to the Red Sea when he dried it up before us until we had crossed over. He did this so that all the peoples of the earth might know that the hand of the LORD is powerful and so that you might always fear the LORD your God."
Joshua 24:14-15, 24 - But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD." And the people said to Joshua, "We will serve the LORD our God and obey him."

Thoughts: God doesn't judge on what you did in the past, your nationality, or how pretty or ugly you are. He wants our present faith and obedience so that we can "approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." The effect of courageous faith changes not just the story of the life of that person who dares to believe, but their passion can have a transforming effect on the destiny of an entire clan.
