Rain and Snow - it is March in Central PA - I did hear someone say today that in like a lion out like a lamb and lambs are white and fluffy just like snow.... anyway on to our scripture of the day.
1 Peter 4:11
If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.
This was our theme verse one year for our tennis team at Messiah College. We liked the idea of serving having ties to our sport :) Anyway - this verse is a great verse to memorize. If we are going to speak - we need to speak truth! If we are going to serve - we must serve as Jesus did - without selfish motives. Our lives are to point to Christ, so he gets the glory and not us. That was our goal when we stepped onto the court in college - we wanted people to know that we were going to be honest, do our best, and reflect God in all that we did so when others played us they would see that we were different. Do people see that you are different when you step onto the court, into the playing field, when you walk through the door. Today is a day to get that in check!
