12/10/12 I Am a Workmanship! By Laurie Donahue

12/10/12 Comparison that Crushes

12/10/12 Comparison crushed Moses' responsiveness to God

12/10/12 Who says I am a Workmanship? Ephesians 2:8-10

12/10/12 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

12/10/12 Messiah Stradivarius Est. $

12/10/12 How do we know what God wants us to do? Read His Word Listen to godly counsel Pray What is needed What is enjoyable

12/10/12 How do we know what God wants us to do? I must constantly be checking my heart attitude to be sure I am serving God and not myself.

12/10/12

What can we learn? If you are a child of God, God has already prepared good things for you to do.

12/10/12 God has given us different gifts which we can use to serve God and one another.

12/10/12 We are all different, and God uses each of us differently to complete His will.

12/10/12 We cannot compare ourselves to others to decide

12/10/12

What gets in your way of serving God?

12/10/12 I don't have the ability. Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, 2 Corinthians 1:21

12/10/12 It's too hard! I can do all this through Him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13

12/10/12 I don't know how! If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. Philippians 4:13

I am lazy ! The way of the sluggard is blocked with thorns, but the path of the upright is a highway. Proverbs 15:19

12/10/12 Others will make fun of me! For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? or am I striving to please men?’” Galatians 1:10

12/10/12 I'd rather serve myself! Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, Philippians 2:3

12/10/12 I am afraid! Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you! Joshua 1:9

God is not first in my life! I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. Psalm 119:10
