If God Took a Satisfaction Survey
Evaluating My Faithfulness
SOURCE TEXT LUKE 14:27
Luke 14:27 - Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.
We want to do our very best in serving the Lord. Let's take a look at how we are doing.
Acts 10 / Cornelius - Doing his best because he did all he could to please God and ensure others could hear the same life-giving news!
Verse 33: "So I sent for you ________ _____________ , and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are ___________ here in the presence of ___________ to hear ________ that you have been commanded by the Lord."
Luke 18 / Rich Ruler - NOT willing to give God his best because he loved his money too much!
Verse 25: "For it is easier for a _____________ to go through the _________ ________ _______ _______________________ than for a rich person to enter the ____________________ of God."
To Ensure my BEST service to God:
- Get started NOW!
- Don't try to do it alone.
- Don't lose heart when it gets tough
CLOSING THOUGHT:
If God had to fill out a satisfaction survey of our service and faithfulness, how would we fare??? Do your best! Until you know better, THEN DO BETTER! (Ref. Luke 14:26)
