Jesus says in his famous sermon on the Mountain:
“If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. “ Matt. 5:41
In Luke Jesus says;
“If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. “ Luke 6:29b
Jesus says that we always should do; “that little extra”.. That little extra is often what makes the whole difference. That little extra separates a good leader from an average leader in the crowd. That little extra distinguishes an amazing church from an average church among all other churches. That little extra that a mother and a wife does makes everyday life into a feast. That little extra is what brightens life, that little extra shines, is noticeable, and nobody can forget it. That little extra is that well thought over gift to your friend instead of that traditional flower or chocolate. That little extra is everything you wouldn’t give or buy for yourself.
When you’ve done everything duty tells you to do, then ask the question;- what would be the “icing on the cake” right now?! – what more can I do?! That little extra creates excellence, joy and well-being! Let’s go the extra mile for someone else and give away yet another suit or a nice pair of shoes in 2011!
Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Luke 6:38
In 2011 we will do that little extra for the newly saved, youth and children in the church! In 2011 we’ll do something extra for the poor in the city and for the unreached peoples! In 2011 we will distinguish ourselves from the crowd by declaring war against “average”!
Today I’m flying out to Luleå in North Sweden to preach the whole weekend-fun! In SOS Church we will hold Saturday Bible study at 4 pm and on our Sunday Celebration at 4 pm Walter Zuniga will be preaching!
See ya!
