Be faithful to a church - Step 6 - Part B

Good morning all.  God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!
   The last lesson ended with receive instruction and the privilege of fellowship.  Today we will begin with worshiping locally.  Look at Colossians 3:16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.
   What happens when you worship? Grow in wisdom---how?  By psalms, hymns, songs from the Spirit, and singing to God with WHAT in your hearts?   GRATITUDE!!
    Lastly, you have opportunities within your church to serve others. Romans 12:
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
   What is being said here?  We all have different gifts. We need to minister or teach. We need to give, be good stewards in our decisions, show mercy and be cheerful.  We all have different gifts and we need to utilize these gifts to the fullest.  Love you all.
  In Christ's Love and Grace
