Ready To Serve....

Today at service we had the Executive Director of Urban Promise come speak to us about encouraging young people because God cares about them and they are our future leaders. This message really just affirmed my conviction to lift up, and encourage those who are weak. I just pray that You will lead and open the doors for me to impact the people who are the weakess and most vulnerable.

Zechariah 7: 9
This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another.

Isaiah 1:17
learn to do right! Seek justice, encourage the oppressed. [ Or / rebuke the oppressor ] Defend the cause of the fatherless, plead the case of the widow.

Isaiah 10:1-2
Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees
to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless.

James 1: 26-27
If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless. 27Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
