May God bless this cup as we drink Your Blood, Jesus and bless this bread as we break it to remember Your broken body on the cross; altogether to blot out our sins and your resurrection as our hope and justification in You. In Jesus name, amen.

My prior reading was on charity. I hear the Holy Spirit saying that there is a difference between chaotic charity and organized charity; the latter being the better for edification of both the church and preaching the gospel to our neighbors.

Today is the last verse of 1 Corinthians 14. If you want to know the context of the verse, you're gonna have to seek out what Paul was referring to regarding being decent and in order ;). I suggest read the whole chapter but do as you will, siblings. Chapter 13 prior will also help.

1 Corinthians 14:40

40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

I hear the Holy Spirit telling me that charity is a heart matter yet it goes even further than that.

I'm reminded of Thomas Welch and His work with finding a way to make unfermented wine so to (i would assume) prevent a stumbling block to alcoholic tendencies within the church mingling indulgence with the Lord's supper. Jesus drank wine so there's no question alcohol is good. However a Christian saw a need in the church toward the weaker congregants in temperance and laboured his way to make a way to include them despite their weakness toward alcohol.

Father, make us more charitable in such ways as we remember Your Son Jesus and His Sacrifice for us all this morning. Not just in word but in deed. Not just in chaotic wildness, but decently and in order. God bless you all siblings and have a happy week. In Jesus name, amen.
