Don't Lose Heart
July 17, 2009
- 5
words from II Cor 4:16: "... we do not lose heart ..." Never lose
heart.
- To
lose heart is to lose center & create vacuum which shall suck up something
to fill itself. We may not want that calling the shots.
- Losing
heart is no option. Losing heart is placing our choices in the hands of chance.
Heart is what controls us - center -core - choice.
- Losing
heart is not an emotional "emptying;" but a void of choice,
determination, & commitment. Commitment drives when all else come loose.
- Our
choice is to not lose heart, to maintain commitment to center, commitment to
God, commitment to mission.
- CHOICE:
Calling - Hope - Obedience - Insight - Commitment - Energy.
- Based
on calling, with hope, in obedience, with insight, we commit to the energy
necessary to choose => CHOICE!
- Pro-
Choice => CHOOSING not to lose heart in heartless deflating days of economic
downturns. Recession is no excuse to take a recess.
- With
that, I'm back to the field.
Each of these points was a separate "Tweet" one day this week.
