Loving Others
When it comes to the whole subject of loving others, you must know this: how you will handle your own heart is how you will handle theirs. This is the wisdom behind Jesus' urging us to love others as we love ourselves (Mark 12:31). "A horrible command," As C.S Lewis points out, "if the self were simply to be hated." If you dismiss your heart, you will simply dismiss theirs. If you expect prefection in your heart, you will raise the same standard for them. If you manage your heart for effeciency and performance, that's what you'll pressure them to be.

Football games have some things in common with church services.

Watch Out!
Watch your thoughts, they become words.
Watch your words, they become actions.
Watch your actions, they become habits.
Watch your habits, they become your character.
Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.
