Five Minute Friday – Opportunities Abound

Though it’s a day late…I didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to participate in the Gypsy Mama’s Five Minute Friday Challenge.

As I go through each day I see that opportunities abound.  Lord may You be my focus and may I see everything through Your eyes and perspective.

There are opportunities to:

• Praise God, especially through trial and tribulation
  

•  Forgive those who hurt me or do me wrong 

• Witness of Christ to those who don’t yet know Him

•  Encourage and strengthen the brethren 

• Take courage from the Lord and face circumstances or people in the strength of the Lord

•  Pray for a multitude of needs, especially and most importantly to pray for the salvation of the unsaved 

• Take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ

•  Turn away from that which is displeasing or sinful in God’s eyes

•  Walk the narrow way that leads to salvation

•  Speak words build people up in the Lord and speak the truth in love 

• Read God’s Word each day
