He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He

walked. (1 John 2:6)Play as Christ would play

He would have been merciful, kind, humble, meek, longsuffering v12

Forgiving v13Loving v14

He would have NOT been wrathful, malicious, blasphemous, or spoken filthy language v8-9

His priority would have been to seek the things above v1-3

The home team

Spend Saturdays as well meeting the needs of the local work

We root for the visiting team When we never miss a game, but we

will miss worshipWhen practice is never skipped, but bible

class isWhen Bibles and Material are lost and

uncomplete, but we never forget our gloves, pads, cleats

The Father Watches Us Play

Ps. 139: 1-4O LORD, You have searched me and

known me.2 You know my sitting down and my rising up;You understand my thought afar off.3 You comprehend my path and my lying down,And are acquainted with all my ways.4 For there is not a word on my tongue,But behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.
