When You Sit, Stand...

These commandments that I give to you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children.  Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.  Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.  Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.” Duet. 6:6-9 “

I was recently preparing to speak on these verses and I began to think about the practical application of living out our faith where we sit, walk, lie down and get up.  So, I came up with a starter list.  Maybe it will spark something in you this morning.  

At work

At play

At home

In the kitchen

In the bedroom

At the golf course

Hanging with the guys or gals

At the ballgame

Around the water cooler

As a children’s worker

As a volunteer

As a mentor

At the gym

As a bible study leader

As a coach

As a father or mother

As a grandpa or grandma

As a husband or wife

As a giver

On your tax return

With your finances

With your activities when you retire

With your employees

With your boss

With your neighbor

With your waiter

With your waitress

With your tip

With the other drivers on the road

With the airline baggage handler

With your in-laws

With the person who messed up your hotel reservation

With the person at the DMV

Live this week on purpose,
