last minute thoughts

Ya know how when you're talking to someone on the phone, or in a texting conversation, or on Facebook IM,or Skype, or Facetime, when you come to the end of your conversation,you kinda jam a lot of last minute things thoughts & ideas?

That's what the apostle, Paul, is doing here at the end of his first letter to the church in Corinth.

It was a bunch of people who were new Christ followers, trying to make their way in a wicked, wicked world.

Paul had talked about a lot of stuff with them, writing some of the foundational thinking for the early church, as well for us now.

Here's what he said to those newby Christ followers in Corinth - I think it works today for us, too...


1 Corinthians 16

13 Be on guard.

Stand true to what you believe.

Be courageous.

Be strong.

14 And everything you do must be done with love.
