Extraordinary Ordinary!预览
Godliness is the Greek word eusebia, which means to look in two different directions. If you are diligently committed to eusebia, you will worship God wholeheartedly and also you will serve your fellow man by being kind, good, and generous. This wonderful Greek word implies your religion has gone from your head to your heart and it has made a beautiful difference in the way you treat people. It means not only are you heavenly minded, but you are also of some earthly good! Because you love God wholeheartedly, one of the greatest calls of your life is to be good to the world in which you live.
During your prayer time, ask God to give you divine appointments. Ask God to “set you up” with people who need a friend or need practical help. Ask God to give you creative ideas on exactly how to love those around you, especially those whom it is difficult to love.
Brotherly kindness is an intense, personal love that moves people from mere friends and acquaintances to family. In order to live a life of vitality and with Heaven’s enthusiasm, you must view your personal relationships not as nuisances, but as opportunities to enlarge your family.
Perhaps you should consider setting aside one night a week to invite people into your home. Remember, this is not a nuisance, but it is part of the life plan of God himself for you to live a life that is overflowing with the vigor of Heaven.
If you are wealthy, invite those who are struggling financially into your home. If you are an empty-nester, invite a young mom with toddlers to go out to lunch with you. If you are alone with no family in the area, invite a large, rambunctious family to your home for popcorn, homemade cookies, and a game night. Your life will be richer for it.
Brotherly kindness is an intrinsic and non-negotiable part of the life of joy and relationship that Jesus desires for you to accommodate. Your life will be more abundant when you decide to care for others.
