You can face the meat grinder of life with joy God wants to make you an example of his goodness and grace Religious self deception is cured by doing the Word, self control and helping others Favoritism has no place among God’s people.

Dynamic, living faith is accompanied by action The tongue is small but powerful- use it carefully! Wisdom is action based and can be increased.

We can win the spiritual war by following the Commander’s battle plan- together. Right planning means planning as if you are not the one in control. Face injustice by focusing on God’s character and his promises. When you’re sick, ask for prayer.

My dear friends, if you know people who have wandered off from God’s truth, don’t write them off. Go after them. Get them back and you will have rescued precious lives from destruction and prevented an epidemic of wandering away from God. -James (The Message)

My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring them back, remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the way of error will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins. -James

Take responsibility to turn wanderers back.

Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the Spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. -Galatians 6.1-2

I want you to know that I am committed to you. You’ll never knowingly suffer at my hands. I’ll never say anything, knowingly, to hurt you. I’ll always, in every circumstance, seek to help you and support you.

If you’re down and I can lift you up, I’ll do that. Anything I have that you need, I’ll share with you; if need be I’ll give it to you.

No matter what I find out about you and no matter what happens in the future, either good or bad, my commitment to you will never change. And there’s nothing you can do about it. I love you, and that’s what it means.
