Dancing with Wolves!
Matthew 10:16 (MSG)
"Stay alert. This is hazardous work I'm assigning you. You're going to be like sheep running through a wolf pack, so don't call attention to yourselves. Be as cunning as a snake, inoffensive as a dove.
This week's sermon was brilliant! Plus Mr Khong was very entertaining. =)
How do we dance with the wolves?
1. Be a snake!
How do we be a "snake"?
Sneaky, yet in a positive way.
"..don't call attention to yourself.." v.16
Don't judge. Don't be quick to correct others. Don't be loud in pointing mistakes. Being discreet, but not deceitful.
2. Be a dove.
How do we be a "dove"?
Phil 2:15
"...so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe..."
Pure, and not of the flesh. Doing things out of the purest intentions and with a sincere heart.
