FOLLOWING HIS EXAMPLE

FOLLOWING HIS EXAMPLE 2 Corinthians 6:1-11 http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=2+Corinthians+6:1-11Dear Father, blessed bestower of grace,As your servant I commend myself to you as your will may require:Through great endurance, if need be - afflictions, hardships,calamities, beatings, imprisonments, tumults, labors, stayingawake, hunger! Through goodness - purity, knowledge, forbearance,kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love, and truthful speech.Through the power of God - with weapons of righteousness for theright hand and the left. In disparity - in honor and dishonor, inill-repute and good-repute, treated as an imposter and yet true, asunknown and yet well-known, as dying, yet behold I live, aspunished but not yet killed, as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, aspoor yet making many rich, as having nothing and yet possessingeverything!In the name of Jesus, who suffered for us, I ask for the grace andwill-power to live according to his example. Amen.
