The Thang: IPC Week 3

Moleskine: Make it Count

As we get older, it’s easy to drift… settle into the grind, go through the motions, let days blur together. But that’s not living.

Resist the urge to just float through. Make it count. Push out a few extra reps in F3. Be fully present with your family when you walk through the door. Stay engaged.

No drifting. No checking out. No regrets.

Make it count.

Moleskine: At a wedding this weekend I heard the worst gospel presentation ever. The gist was, “Holy just means trying to do good. We all do that, sort of, so we’re all holy!”

WRONG!
We are all sinners in desperate need of a savior. This is why Jesus came down to live a perfect life and die in our place. My 2.0, @Gulliver, shared this song. It kinda nails it.

Run and Run (Christ Is All My Righteousness) [Live] Lyrics

Run and run the law demands
But gives me neither feet nor hands
Better news, the gospel brings
It bids me fly, it gives me wings

Bearing shame and all my sin
There in my place He stood condemned
Here I stand now justified
My guilt is His, His grace is mine

Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
Now and forevermore my heart confess
Christ is all my righteousness
Christ is all my righteousness

My accuser, he may roar
Of countlеss sins that I have done
Thesе I know and thousands more
Behold, my God, He knows not one

Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
Now and forevermore my heart confess
Christ is all my righteousness
Christ is all my righteousness

When I stand before the throne
There dressed in beauty not my own
Then, Lord, shall I fully know
Not til that day how much I owe

Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
Now and forevermore my heart confess
Christ is all my righteousness

Praise the Lord
Oh, my soul, praise the Lord
For now this sinner’s heart has found its’ rest

COT: Prayers for Big Mac’s pastor and a job for Panhandle’s 2.0.

Moleskine: And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying:
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%205:2-12&version=ESV#fen-ESV-23244a] of God.
“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
“Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
