"My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:12-13)
This is a COMMAND: we must sacrifice for one another, put aside our will for the good of others, and as CHRIST did, make our own desires secondary. if we truly love the Lord, we will live sacrificail lives and trust God with our needs.
It is NOT an option to put others first . . . it is a command. What a BODY the Church would be if we as individuals would live in such a way!
Have a sacrificial day . . . obedience . . . living life as a sacrifice unto the Lord, is our minimal offering to HIM!
"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!
