Jesus Principles (#7 in the Series)

"The time is always right to do what is right." ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

Acts 10:38 “…how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.” 

My husband has a saying, "A servant fits anywhere." He has preached many times on what Jesus taught about being a servant. I believe I am where I am today because of my obedience to serve those God called me to serve. In fact I have a single CD called, "Saved To Serve", that you can purchase in our bookstore at:

The only way we can do what God desires us to do, is to die to what we want to do. In this process we find the true purpose for our life and the passion inside us can begin to come to life. Truly as Jeremiah said, "There is a fire shut up in my bones..."  
Martin Luther had that fire. He said it best when he said this, "Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable...Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals."

The question for us then is, "How much are we willing to sacrifice, suffer,  and struggle? How hard and long are we willing to work with all our passion?"

Let's heed the words of Martin Luther today, "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the staircase."

I believe if we will take the first step we will be surprised at how quickly we arrive at our destiny. We need not fight for a position. God makes a way in the desert. Martin Luther said, "War is a poor chisel to carve out tomorrow." Let's choose rather to let love do what only love can do.
