Unmerciful Servant
Don't miss the lines from this song: "Oh the Glory of it all, is He came near. For the rescue of us all, that we may live, for the glory of it all, oh He is here. Redemption from the fall, that we may live..." That's big. Massive. Almost incomprehensible. The weight of understanding what Jesus did coming down here for us - you and me and the guy across the the row from you too. All of us. In your day to day, in your coming and going it sometimes is hard to remember, isn't it? In your problems, in your hurts, in your debts, in your debtors in can be hard to remember as well. But that doesn't mean it is any smaller. It is still glorious. You are forgiven. You are accepted. You need to frogive. You need to accept. You need to remember. Key Passage: Matthew 18:23-35

We will strive towards unity as we try to reflect the Kingdom of God on earth.

Field of Dreams
Redeeming Ruth Part 5 "Field of Dreams" Ruth 2:4-17 In God's field of dreams we find: 1. A place of acceptance. This acceptance is seen in: * God- honoring fellowship (4) * The grace extended to foreigners (5-6a.) 2. A place of access. This access involves: * Direction (8) * Protection (9a.) * Satisfaction (9b.) * Communion (14) 3. A place of amazement. The grace of God: * Should overwhelm us (10) * It validates our obedience (11-12) * Produces an outpouring (13) * Allows for opportunity of service (14-16)

Adopted Children Can Face Life Fearlessly - Romans 8:14-18
In Romans 8:14-18, Paul encourages the Roman church with the news that they have been adopted as true children of God. As God’s people today, we can take this same encouragement, knowing that our loving Father protects us through suffering, provides for us through our failings, and accepts us though others may reject us. We can face life without fear.
