BIBLE MEMORY WORK |
TODAY
Fellow Workers For Your Joy
"Not that we have dominion over your faith, but are fellow workers for your joy; for by faith you stand."
2 Corinthians 1:24
1. Paul's Teaching On "Faith" In This Text
- He did not seek dominion over the faith of the Corinthians.
- He saw himself as a fellow worker (among many) to help the Corinthians cultivate their faith.
2. Faith And Joy
- Where there is a well-developed faith there would also be joy.
- All good servants of God are committed to helping people cultivate their faith.
3. By Faith We Stand
This is a basic Christian premise.
NEXT SUNDAY
Sufficient As Ministers
"Who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life."
2 Corinthians 3:6

POETRY CORNER |
TOO BUSY
Forgive me, Lord, that I allow
My days and hours to be
So filled with trifling tasks, that oft
I find no time for Thee.My thoughts so oft are occupied
With countless earthly things,
When Thou wouldst have them mount on High
By faith with eagle wings.So many duties round me press,
That rob me of the time
I fain would spend with Thee, my Lord,
In fellowship divine.Too busy - O forbid, dear Lord,
That I should ever be
Too much engrossed in worldly tasks
To spend an hour with Thee!That I should let the din of life
Drown out Thy voice of love,
And, groveling in the "sands of time",
Lose out on things Above.O help me, Lord, to take the time -
To set all else aside,
That in the Secret Place of prayer
I may with Thee abide;To hear what Thou wouldst say to me,
And hold communion sweet;
To praise Thy precious worthy Name
And worship at Thy feet:To hearken to Thy holy will,
To feel Thy cleansing power -
O may I ne'er let aught deprive
My soul of this blest hour!Avis B. Christensen
