In the Beginning
"In the Beginning", the daily REMINDER from The Carroll Outreach Mission (formerly The Sparrows' Nest or TSN), is intended to jump start your day with the Lord. The Bible opens up with , "In the beginning, God..." It is our prayer that you will use this tool to begin or "restart" your day with the Lord! Only what we do for Him will last in the end!

Gut check . . . .and a little about St. Patrick!
"Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me."

Spirit living in a carnal world
Hang in everyone. God is able . Keep trusting and keep striving. He is soon to come!
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. (Galatians 5:24-26)

Go tell
So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God. 9 He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace.
Never be ashamed of your faith. Let everyone know by your actions, your reactions, even your words!
People need to know. Our nation is lost. . . People are lost!

You got this thing! Really???
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. (James 1:2-4)
When we begin to experience troubles . . . things we just cannot handle alone and mom and dad cannot fix, we begin to call out to God and we learn to trust Him! As we go through life, we then look back and see how faithful God has been and we learn to simply trust Him daily.

Never alone . . . always on His mind!
It is pretty cool to know that Jesus is always thinking of each of us. None of us is ever alone! When all we can see around us is trouble . . . when we seem to be worrying about everything and anything . . . when we can't seem to sleep well because there is always something on our mind . . . we are always on His mind!
“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. (John 17:20-21)
