This is a sermon I shared in August 2016. Human beings, slide, sometimes into a feeling of toleration instead renovation. Both of these texts suggest that it is up to you and me to be PROACTIVE in paying attention to what we have been taught. There are times when opportunities to serve, like what Jesus taught, stare us in the face and we ignore the opportunity to make a difference. “Courage can't exist without action. Anything else is a lion without his roar.” Shannon L. Alder You do not need to suffer to know suffering, but you need empathy first to identify and feel the suffering of others around you.” Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem Human beings, slide, sometimes into a feeling of toleration instead renovation. Oswald Chambers wrote: “To say that 'prayer changes things' is not as close to the truth as saying, 'prayer changes me and then I change things.' God has established things so that prayer, on the basis of redemption, changes the way a person looks at things.”
