Theme: “Living in the light”
Text: Philippians 2:14-17
14. Do all things without grumbling or hesitation, 15. that you may be blameless and pure, children of God without blame in the midst of a perverse and corrupt generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, 16. carrying the word of life; and I will be able to boast in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain nor labored in vain. 17. And even though I serve as a libation for the sacrifice and for the service of your faith, I rejoice in it, and I rejoice with you all.
Let's remember:
To live in the light is to do everything with a willing heart, with firm faith. Living in the light means doing everything with love and without pride. If we truly live in the light, we must do everything in humility. Doing a good work but murmuring is the symbol of forcing, it is also proof that we do it reluctantly. Murmuring within a group serves neither the interests of the group, nor our own interests, much less those of God. Murmuring shows constraint or lack of will to do a good work. The one who takes advantage of murmurings and rejoices in them is satan the devil because he loves to separate us from the love of God. Also, hesitation is a clear sign of a lack of firmness, involvement and determination. We hesitate because we lack the conviction to carry out a work. Let us do everything without murmuring or hesitation but with firm footing. Let us get involved with a good heart so that we may be blameless and pure, blameless children of God in the midst of a perverse and corrupt generation, among whom we shine as lights in the world, bearing the word of life. Excellent Friday and good start to the weekend. Amen
