COF Podcast: Comeback Season - When a Setback is Self-Inflicted

My Christmas Prayer

1. Help me to see with your eyes

“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were confused and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.”  Matthew 9:37

“All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, he brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us.”   2 Corinthians 1:3-5 (MSG)

2. Help me to speak with your words

“But the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David!”  Luke 2:10-11

“What you say can preserve life or destroy it; so you must accept the consequences of your words.”  Proverbs 18:21 (GNT)

3. Help me to love with your heart

“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”  John 3:16
“But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.”  Romans 5:8
4. Help me to serve with your attitude

“Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with Godas something to cling to. Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to Godand died a criminal’s death on a cross. Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honorand gave him the name above all other names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”  Philippians 2:3-11
