DON'T SLIP

Hebrews 2:1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.

Oh, how easy it is to let things slip ~ in our heart, our life, our homes, and even in our marriages. Obviously this doesn’t take God by surprise, because He warns us of just such things in Hebrews.

Sometimes things just become so routine that we just kind of operate on “cruise control.” We go through the motions, but our heart isn’t in it any more.

Let’s not let that happen to us or to our families. Let’s make sure we give the “more earnest heed” to those things we have heard. Take time to meditate over the preaching you hear throughout the week, the reading and studying that you are doing of God’s Word, and the actions you go through each and every day. You and those around will benefit so much by putting your heart into all that you do.

Let’s not slip ladies – those slips lead to falls – and those falls cause bruises and injuries (to you and those that end up slipping with you.)

You mentioned a powerful truth Sis...."Let’s not slip ladies – those slips lead to falls – and those falls cause bruises and injuries (to you and those that end up slipping with you.)" We tend to forget when we fall that others are watching and following after us. Thank you for the reminder.
