This is my 11 year old’s first sermon. He wrote it himself and did a masterful job. I’m so proud of my boys. I hope you enjoy.
WWJD?
Romans 12:10
There was two boys that waited an equal amount of time to ride a roller coaster. When it was time for them to get on the ride there was only a spot for one person. How should they decide who rides first?
Your parents ask you to clean your room, but you want to watch t.v. instead. What should you do?
Two boys arrive at the snack machine at the same time. What should they do?
Choosing to put others first isn’t easy. If you don’t know what to do ask yourself: WWJD or What Would Jesus Do? Jesus wouldn’t go ahead of the boy on the roller coaster. Letting others be first in line and putting others ahead of yourself pleases God. Thinking of somebody else’s needs and not your own is another way to make God happy.
When your not putting others first, you’re being selfish. Jesus would never hurt somebody’s feelings in order to be first.
Always remember JOY. Which means Jesus, Others, Yourself.
That made me smile …. thanks for sharing.

Rachel,
Thanks for your comment. I really appreciate you visiting my blog. I haven’t posted in long time, but am hopeful to start back soon. I’m in a season of transition. I’ve had several opportunities to listen to your blogtalkradio program and find it very refreshing. I know that our Abba Father is working through you. Keep the faith and the good work you are doing. I was on btr, but got tired of all the bickering and decided to leave. I’m considering coming back. I’ve been reading your blog today and really enjoyed it. Thanks for all you do for the kingdom. May God’s Shalom fill your heart. By the way, I sent you a friend request on facebook.
Because of Calvary,
O.B.
