Karlyn: LLJ week 7 day 1

Good Monday Morning!  We had a fun weekend and I'm very thankful to have Monday morning at home to catch up and rest a bit!!!  Congrats Cindy and Jared, so fun!  The GMG summer book club is a book Jenifer just read and one I want to read, are y'all interested?  You can see it on the website.  It's called Anything.

S - Luke 15:7 In the same way, there is more joy in heaven over one lost sinner who repents and returns to God than over ninety nine others who are righteous and haven't strayed away.

O - Being there for and reaching out to sinners who need to repent should be on my mind every day.  I should be active in this part of my life instead of retreating into the comfort of my friends who have repented.

A - For a while I stayed real comfortable in the easiness of my relationships with my friends who are believers.  In the last year I've had a lot of opportunities to build relationships with those who aren't believers or just not in a good relationship with Christ.  It's hard and can be very frustrating and I have to pray A LOT.  I haven't seen much change in anyone yet but there's still a lot of trust and friendship to be built.  It's definitely an area I need to continue to build on in reaching out to others who aren't in the same place I am spiritually or not at all!

P - Lord thank you for seeking out sinners like me.  Help me to know how to be a friend to those who don't know you yet and help me to live like you authentically.
