Lives Worthy of Your Calling

We Worship God
A Guide for Worship Leaders:
The Christ Hymn



Ephesians 4:1-6 (The Message)
To Be Mature
 1-3In light of all this, here's what I want you to do. While I'm locked up here, a prisoner for the Master, I want you to get out there and walk—better yet, run!—on the road God called you to travel. I don't want any of you sitting around on your hands. I don't want anyone strolling off, down some path that goes nowhere. And mark that you do this with humility and discipline—not in fits and starts, but steadily, pouring yourselves out for each other in acts of love, alert at noticing differences and quick at mending fences. 4-6You were all called to travel on the same road and in the same direction, so stay together, both outwardly and inwardly. You have one Master, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who rules over all, works through all, and is present in all. Everything you are and think and do is permeated with Oneness.

For Reflection
You have been called to Christ.  Use your gifts.  Travel the road of service to the Lord. Be in this world not of this world.  Live humbly. Help the poor. Prefer justice. Walk a steady pace that invites others to the Kingdom of God.

Pray
that you remain one with God.  Pray that your life is lived as a sacrifice to the living Lord.  Pray that you are worthy of your calling and of your gifts.
