Walk worthy of your calling…

Ephesians 4:1-3 1 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called, 2 with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love; 3 being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. (WEB) What does it mean to walk worthy of your calling? Does it mean that we have to try harder to live a Christian life? Do we have to be more disciplined or more focused? Does it mean giving more, praying more, working more? In many Christian circles,...

PREP SCHOOL

“You must be prepared in the same way.” –Matthew 24:44 Since we “cannot know the Day [Jesus] is coming” (Mt 24:42), we must prepare to be ready to meet Him today and “settle with” Him (Mt 24:51). The Corinthians showed their preparedness by waiting “for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Cor 1:7). We must also be prepared for the possibility that He might come back in a short time, for example, in a year. This means we must spread the Word of God with urgency just as did St. Paul and the apostles (1 Cor 7:29, 31;...

In Ephesians 5:20, Paul restates this when he says … giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father; (WEB) I truly believe that the more that we can embrace a thankful life, the more that we see things to be thankful for....

OUR ONLY WORTHINESS

“Make your lives worthy of the God Who calls you to His kingship and glory.” –1 Thessalonians 2:12 “Lead a life worthy of the Lord and pleasing to Him in every way” (Col 1:10). “Conduct yourselves, then, in a way worthy of the gospel of Christ” (Phil 1:27). “Live a life worthy of the calling you have received” (Eph 4:1). The Lord commands us to lead lives worthy of Him, the Gospel, and our calling. Will the Lord be able to declare the end of this day and the end of our lives “worthy”? Before receiving Jesus in Holy Communion,...

Let the peace of God rule…

Colossians 3:15-16 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord. (WEB) I like how today’s Scripture reading starts… ‘Let’ the peace of God rule in your hearts. Then it goes on to say ‘Let’ the word of Christ dwell in you richly… When I read this, it sounds like our part in...
