Living Our Faith

"And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all He has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice -- the kind He will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship Him." Romans 12:1

Seven Deadly Sins: SLOTH

Our Scripture Reading for this morning is Ephesians 4:17-5:2.

===

This morning we will look at the vice of sloth. To prepare for worship I invite you to do this short activity and prayer by Ann Voskamp (from her "A Lent to Repent and Refresh" resource)

Read Acts 3:19 (a few times)

"Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord."

Reflect (on the phrase that could re-form you)

Repent (how does it convict you?)

Refresh (live the reviving Truth of this Word)

Prayer

By Grace, today I will fast from the arrogance that my repentance was a one time event when I first came to the Cross, when in reality repentance is a continual event for those who never leave the power of the cross. Today I will have the courage to face my sin and own it, because I look into the face of Christ and He owns me, cleanses me, and remakes me. We repent of ever thinking there would be revival without repentance, of thinking you would heal our land without us getting on our knees.
