Karlyn - Ephesians 4

GOOOD Mornin' Everybody!!

S - parts of 3:1-3 (The Message)  I want you to get out there and walk - better yet, RUN on the road God called you to travel.  I don't want any of you sitting around on your hands....and mark that you do this with humility and discipline - not in fits or starts but steadily, pouring yourselves out for each other in acts of love, alert at noticing differences and quick at mending fences.

3:30  Don't grieve God.  Don't break his heart.  His Holy Spirit, moving and breathing in you, is the most intimate part of your life, making you fit for himself.  Don't take such a gift for granted.

O - My Christian life is required to be active like my body requires me to be active!!!  What things are active...humility, discipline, being consistent/steady, pouring out acts of love, mending fences.  Man this is the type of person I want to be around and become!

A - I tend to look around and complain about what I don't see other Christians doing that they should be doing.  That means I'm sitting on my hands and not out being ACTIVE.  Because if I was active I wouldn't have time to complain!  Instead I would be building humility, discipline, etc.

P - God give me an unquenchable desire to be this active Christian that Paul describes.  Help me to run this road and stop sitting on my hands.  Thank you for challenging me and continually showing me where I need to grow.  Thank you for Paul and for using him in a way that he never would have imagined possible!  Use me too Father!
