Living for God's Kingdom

Greetings to all. This weekend, let us focus on embracing peace and joy and continue to please God.

There are misunderstandings about what it means to please God and belong to His Kingdom. Our flaws and past choices do not bar us from experiencing joy, peace, or acceptance. Although we are imperfect, we are still welcomed in God’s kingdom.

Romans 14:17–18 (GW)

17God’s kingdom does not consist of what a person eats or drinks. Rather, God’s kingdom consists of God’s approval and peace, as well as the joy that the Holy Spirit gives.

18The person who serves Christ with this in mind is pleasing to God and respected by people. 

Lesson: Instead of being harsh on ourselves or judging others, let us find joy and peace by focusing on God’s Kingdom.
