Tip of the "day, week, hour...whatever :-)"
God orders every event of our life down to the trivial traffic jam that makes us late because we timed it to the last second. HE KNOWS!!
He is all about our responses to life's situations. Our best witnessing opportunities can sometimes come when unbelievers see that our responses to circumstances come from a complete trust in a God who orders and ordains every bit of our lives. Nothing takes God by surprise.
He allows ALL in order to work out His purposes in our lives.
Accept your portion today and respond in a godly way!

June 4...tip...
"...Tolerating a wrong attitude toward another person causes you to follow the spirit of the devil, no matter how saintly you are. One carnal judgment of another person only serves the purposes of hell in you. Bring it immediately into the light and confess...If you don't, your heart will become hardened through and through. One of the penalties of sin is our acceptance of it. It is not only God who punishes for sin, but sin establishes itself in the sinner and takes its toll...No power, except the power that comes from being filled with the Holy spirit, can change or prevent the inherent consequences of sin." Oswald Chambers
"If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowshiip one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanseth us from all sin!" I John 1:7
Wow! How important it is to walk in the light of the Word of God, keeping our sin confessed.
Ever wonder why certain people don't get along??? Do we see them as God's child growing...or do we JUDGE and not see our judgment of them as sin! God forbid!

Tip of the Day
It has been recommended that I post a "Tip of the Day" for those of you who find the time to follow the blog...
Tip of the Day: Memorize the verse for the week.I John 1:1
Find memory tricks to help and then say it over and over in your head as you go about your work. Driving is a great time to practice.
(Stop to free up some mental space for prayer, too)
This week at Northside we are reviewing Psalm 27. If you have the Psalm down, it is a good opportunity to get a little ahead on I John 1:1.
As you practice I John 1:1, I have noticed some helpful hints:
There are 4 "which."
The first "which" is a part of the intro of the verse.
The other 3 precede the letters h for heard, e for seen with our eyes, l for looked at and hands have handled. It almost spells the word help which is what the "Word of Life" is for us all the time.
The rest of the chapter will go more easily if you remember that it is all about the Lord Jesus Christ and what He is for us...our eternal life, our common bond of fellowship one with another, and God with us.
I also recommend that you look over the "homework" for the new Bible Study starting on Sunday. The questions will help prepare for a great study of the book of I John.
Words cannot explain the blessing that comes from attempting to memorize God's Word. It is truly peace to the soul and strength in times of temptation!
Have a blessed weekend!
