The way I see it, there are two primary errors for the professing Christian called to be a minister for Christ. One is we do absolutely nothing. We’re lazy. We feel inadequate. We’re too busy with other things. The other error is we start serving and then quit. We’re discouraged. We’re unappreciated. We’re persecuted. We’re unsatisfied with the results. Either way we are not ministering and either way, regardless of the means, Satan has proved successful to decommission us from our Lord’s service. The first error is having no heart. The second error is losing heart.

Dear friends,

Today's Word for Today comes from an excerpt I received in a mailing called "Powered By 4":

Today's Reading:

Hebrews 11:1-21

To read the passage online, http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews11:1-21;&version=47

Questions for thought:

How is faith defined? What's the link to pleasing God? What are some
things God's people have done "by faith"? What do you see God doing for
them in return? How would you describe the viewpoint or attitude
expressed in 11:13-16? List some ways that God commends those who live
by faith.
