Moreover it is required of stewards that one be found faithful (NKJV)
1 Corinthians 4:2
I taught a lesson on this verse and Zechariah 7:4-10 which I blogged about a few days ago. ( We have a Prayer Breakfast every Fri at our Church. )
There were a few points that caught my attention on this but verse 5 speaks of God knowing the motives of our heart. . . Also in Zechariah 7, God is chastising the Religious Jews in captivity about just Fasting and Going through the motions. . .
That’s what God is speaking to me about. . . Don’t go through the motions, cause God knows my heart and He knows yours? If I say I am a Christian. . . then God knows the motives of our inmost being of why we take certain actions. . .It isn’t for us to judge our fellow believer on their Godliness, it is to God to judge the believer and the unbeliever. . . But it is up to us to share what we know. . .
I’ve heard an adage from my Preacher in Mesquite when I was growing up. . . He would say (and I’m sure he took this from someone . . . :))
“You know I’m just a blind beggar, showing another blind beggar where to find some bread. The Bread of Life.”
I believe its true. . .
