Hebrews 12:1-2,  "Let's throw off any extra baggage, get rid of the sin that trips us up and fix our eyes on Jesus."

Think

Over this past week, we've looked at the reality that we are all living with some level of dysfunction, because in some way or another we have all dissed God's function. We've taken step after step away from God's plan and purpose for our lives, and it has caused us to miss out on the kind of change He wants us to experience. However, we've also discovered that there is a STEP that leads out of our dysfunction. It starts when we accept Jesus as our SAVIOR. We must also accept the Bible as our TEACHER, accept the ENERGY Jesus provides, and accept Gods' will as our PURPOSE. When we follow this step, we will discover something powerful-true and lasting change that helps us overcome our past problems and discover the future of fulfillment. Which way are you stepping? Are the steps in your life drawing you away from God, or are they in line with His plan?

Act

The Christian life is all about taking step after step-not away from God, but toward Him and according to His purpose. Today, take the step of connecting with God's House, the local church, by attending Fellowship Church's weekend experience and then The Table Classes. Don't just say you want to get in step with God. Make sure you do it!

Pray

Thank you, God, for the purpose You have in my life. Help me to continue to take steps that are in line with that purpose so that I can experience a life of meaning and true direction. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
