FIGHT FOR NOT AGAINST<br />

Rom 1:8-15<br />
Every situation (good or bad) is an opportunity to express what the<br />
Lord has put in our hearts. Relationships are about promises. Word<br />
given and word kept. There is no commitment that is not first spoken<br />
and meant. In sports terms, declaring your commitment gets you out<br />
of the stands and into the game. It makes you a participant not an<br />
onlooker.<br />
In every circumstance we must declare our positive intention. In times<br />
of tension and difficulty, silence can be wounding. Never assume<br />
that people know how much you are for them. Always declare it with<br />
thoughtfulness and love.<br />
• Be intentional to one another.<br />
• Fight FOR people.<br />
• Live out who you really are with people.<br />
• Being devoted to people means being committed through good<br />
times and bad.<br />
• Take time to upgrade your current relationships. No status-quo.<br />
Get better.<br />
• Express affection and compassion.<br />
• Maintain the same love even when people are inconsistent.<br />
• Declaring your commitment makes a difference to you as well as<br />
others.<br />
How we team: This team is filled with people around you who<br />
mean so much to you. Think about them and what they are facing and<br />
declare a commitment to that friendship. A word, a card, a gesture, a<br />
gift, a phone call, text, coffee, time...will make a lot of difference to<br />
someone and you will feel better about yourself.<br />
Value: Declaring your commitment to others is the best way of<br />
understanding and receiving God's commitment to you. The scriptures<br />
are God's declaration of commitment to humanity. His whole heart<br />
is in His word to us. When you declare your commitment, your heart<br />
follows your involvement.<br />
