Are you faithful in sharing His love with others?

Family Celebrations Are Occasions to Draw Strength From One Another: In the family we recognize our weaknesses & vulnerabilities & ask for help– v.22; A faithful walk encourages others to walk in faith; Reality causes us to draw strength from our Source– vv.26-27;

Family Celebrations Are Occasions to Anticipate Future Blessings: By faith we have become partakers of the New Covenant– v.28; By faith we know there’s a better day coming– v.29; By faith we can celebrate now what we know will be certain in the future– v.30; By faith you can become part of our family: by letter, statement of faith or baptism.
