"For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power." 1 Corinthians 4:20
A shared experience....
-One person had to 'bless a jerk' and realized that perhaps he was the 'jerk' himself with the way he became frustrated and angry during his commute to work. He stopped for coffee and noticed a woman arrive at the same time -- his first thought was "I need to get in front of her.....she is probably going to order some complicated drink that will cause me to wait!" Instead of acting on this thought, he chose to hold the door open for the woman. She told him to step in front of her in line, but he declined. When his turn came, he was told that she paid for his coffee! Lesson learned.
Repent by turning away from the Kingdom of the world and TURN TOWARD the Kingdom of God.
REPENT --> TURN --> BELIEVE
How do we seek the Kingdom of God?
- look for opportunities to help
- be affirming to someone
- look for the good in every situation
- share our love of Christ with others
- wear the 'Kingdom Goggles'
