1 Developing a Disciple’s Heart
Part 6

2 Romans 12:9-10 (MSG) 9 Love from the center of who you are; don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. 10 Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle.

3 Romans 12:11-12 (MSG) 11 Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, 12 cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder.

4 Romans 12:13-14 (MSG) 13 Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality. 14 Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath.

5 Romans 12:15-16 (MSG) 15 Laugh with your happy friends when they're happy; share tears when they're down. 16 Get along with each other; don't be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody.

6 Hebrews 10:24 (NIV) 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.
