"tip of the week-It is so easy to become complacent and fall into sin. Over the last two weeks I reduced my time in the word, my time on my knees, and added more TV time. Last week I skipped the Wednesday prayer meeting, and this week I made an excuse to skip Wednesday night service and the prayer meeting. Then I fell to the flesh. I found my thoughts turning to material things (lust of the eyes), comfort food (lust of the flesh), and I made a few sarcastic remarks for attention (pride of life). I took off the armor of God and left myself vulnerable. Then on Friday I was tempted to skip Team Hope. But God is gracious! He reminded me of how David fell into sin (w/Bathsheba), when he became idle because he wasn't with his troops on the battlefield. I quickly repented & went out with Team Hope in the rain, even though I really didn't want to. God is sooo good! He stopped the rain when we got to Bay Walk & opened the skies again when we were returning. As soldiers in the Lord's army, we must daily put on our armor of God. We are in a battle, we need to stay alert!" -Mrs. Phyllis. I thought this was so thoughtful, I had to put it somewhere to safekeep it, so I could go back and remember it later. It was Mrs. Phyllis's Evangelism tip of the week to Team Hope, Calvary Chapel's Evangelism team. http://www.teamhope.info/" title="http://www.teamhope.info/" target="_blank"http://www.teamhope.info/
