Morning Word from Pastor Peter Sunagawa

Samuel…
By walking faithfully in God,
he became a person loved by both God and people.
…This is different from being respected simply because you graduated from a famous foreign theological university or hold a high position.

It's about the Spirit of God remaining in that person's heart
(His presence✨), which leads those around them to love…🤔
and respect them.

And,
"A person loved by both God and people" has the spiritual blessing of God always being with them and accompanying them.

So…😓
What is necessary to be "loved by both God and people"❓️?

① Humility.
…② Using faith in daily life.
…I think these two are important.
…Romans 14:18.

"The person who serves Christ in this way is a pleasing person to God and is well regarded by men."
…That's my goal😢. Shalom.
