Walking In Humility, Joy and Love

You know you are a servant when you are treated like one and you are not offended.

Your heart is in the place to serve and care not your needs but the needs of others.

I have seen that here at Stoney Brooke

Down at the Preschool-

wiping buggers off of noses

Playing a game of tag

Upper school

Lovingly encouraging a student who is struggling through a subject or had a bad day

Or maybe even…with All grace loving on us the parents of your students

Mr Grim Taking out the Trash…

Stoneybrook has been an incredible example selfless and sacrificial love…

But it takes work, Intentionality and it takes love outside of our own…

Verse for the Year…

1 Corinthians 16:13–14 “13 Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. 14 Let all that you do be done with love.”

Watch: to be alert; to be awake

It takes action and intentionality

You are watching the needs of your students

You are alert and seeing how you can serve them and their families

Let all that you do be done with Love

John 15- Abiding in Christ

John 15:9–12 “9 “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. 11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. 12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

V:11-These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

Remain rooted in Him- That you Resemble Him

Joy May Be FULL

John 15:1-8 (Read for HW

He is the Vine, we are the branches, if we abide in Him (Have Fellowhip and connected with Him) WE WILL BEAR FRUIT

Joy: Its Not Happiness

It is your Spirit (Deepest Part of Who you are) Being Pleased no matter the Circumstance

To Walk in Joy Daily

Focus on JOY

Jesus

Others

You

When we put Jesus 1st, Others 2nd, You Last

The New King James Version (Chapter 26)

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”

27 Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
