2 Corinthians 5:14-21; 2 Peter 3:1; Ephesians 3:18-19; Romans 12:1-2; Luke 9:23-25 — As humans we are prone to distraction and forgetfulness - we need reminders to stay on track. Paul’s message to the Corinthian church is a reminder to all believers: Christ’s restorative work on the Cross compels us to live as Christ’s ambassadors, doing all that we do with Him as our master and His love as our motivation.

Revelation 2:1-7; Luke 7:36-50, 10:38-42 — In John’s Revelation, the Church at Ephesus was commended by Jesus for their hard work, patient endurance, hate of evil, and sound doctrine. And yet they had abandoned their first love - the love of Jesus. How do we heed this warning and keep ‘the main thing’ the main thing; letting all that we do flow from loving Jesus as our highest priority?

Matthew 9:35-38; Isaiah 6:1,8, 59:1; Genesis 18:14; John 4:35; James 5:16; 2 Chronicles 7:14 — Jesus saw the great ‘lostness’ of humanity as an opportunity; a plentiful harvest ripe for the picking. As we consider how God’s Great Story is still unfolding today, may we respond to this same opportunity as He did: with expectant faith, deep compassion, earnest prayer, and urgent action. Just as Isaiah proclaimed, may we too cry “Here I am Lord, send me!”
