Sunday Notes 09/09/12

Topic:  Hitting the Mark on Selflessness - Matthew 5:38-42

Notes:
* Live selflessly when it comes to exacting revenge.  Lay down your right to retaliate.  End the cycle of violence.

* Live selflessly with what you own.  Lay down your right to cling tightly to stuff.  Don't let possessions come between you and another person.

* Live selflessly when it comes to service.  Lay down your right to just do the minimum.  Go the extra mile when asked to do something  (especially when it is something you don't want to do.)

* Live selfessly when it comes to your money.  Give and give generously and cheerfully.  Lay down your right to say 'I earned it and it is all mine.'

*  Lay down your rights.  *  Live selflessly.  *  Lay down yourself for the sake of Christ.  *
