C H O F Ministry: “Where Scripture Meets Innovation” 🙌🏿

Greetings, valiant warriors of faith! Let us reflect on the transformative power of grace in our lives and relationships today. ✨

“Grace is the bridge that carries us from judgment to love.”
– Bishop W. F. Houston Jr., Theological Educator & Spiritual Inspirationalist ✝️

Divine Revelation:
7 “Do not judge, so that you won’t be judged. 2 For you will be judged by the same standard with which you judge others, and you will be measured by the same measure you use.– Matthew 7:1-2 (CSB) 📖

Our Philosophical Term For Today:
Charis (χάρις) (Greek) 🏛️
Meaning: Charis translates to “grace,” signifying unmerited favor, kindness, and goodwill. It reflects God’s divine love expressed toward humanity and calls us to embody the same spirit of generosity and forgiveness in our interactions with others.

🤔 I recall a time when I was quick to judge someone based on their actions without understanding their circumstances. Later, I discovered the challenges they were facing and realized how my judgment lacked compassion. That moment humbled me and reminded me of how often God extends grace to me despite my shortcomings.

🌈 Beloved:
Jesus’ words in Matthew 7:1-2 challenge us to examine our hearts before we pass judgment on others. When we judge, we set a standard by which we too will be measured. Instead of focusing on others’ faults, let us choose to extend charis—grace—just as God has abundantly extended it to us. Grace transforms relationships, fosters understanding, and reflects the heart of Christ. Today, ask yourself: Am I building bridges of grace or walls of judgment?

Let Us Go Into The Throne Room of Grace and Mercy:

Heavenly Father 👑,
Thank You for Your boundless grace that covers all my imperfections. Teach me to see others through Your eyes of love and compassion. Help me resist the urge to judge and instead extend grace, forgiveness, and understanding. May my words and actions reflect Your heart in every interaction. In Jesus’ mighty name, To God Be The Glory. 🙏🏿

🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Extending Grace Every Step of the Way,
I’m Bishop W. F. Houston Jr., Theological Educator & Spiritual Inspirationalist, reminding you that grace is not just a gift we receive but a gift we are called to give!
