Galatians 6

Galatians 6 (the Message). Live creatively! Interesting choice of words. What does this mean?

  • Don’t settle for a dull “in-a-rut” life. Put my mind to work. Look for creative [out of the box] ways and opportunities to serve the Lord. And save the critical comments for yourself, not others.

  • Stoop down – Jean, don’t be too proud to do the lowly, dirty jobs.

  • Reach out – share other’s burdens and share what you have too, especially the good news of the gospel. Explore and renew the truth of who I am in Christ.

  • Keep close to Him so you can hear Him give the orders for the day, or the change in plans.

  • Sink totally into the assignments you are given.

  • Don’t compare yourself with others.

  • Take responsibility for doing your creative best with my life.

Sow the seeds where and when God says, then let God’s Spirit do the growth work and you will harvest a crop of real life – eternal Life!

Don’t follow some who just want to look good before others. Jean, be courageous and walk by faith!
