BE Two-Twelve

I got an email today that totally rocked my boat. BE Two-Twelve. As I dove into givemore.com I realized that they were selling some trademarked statements and ideas to challenge people.

They made an impact on me--that I just had to share on Facebook. The idea of 211 degrees F water is just hot, but at 212 degrees F water boils -- really took a hold.

The idea that boiling in all I do....discipleship, faith (differently as Chad discussed this week), family, life, work, in all we do....BE TWO-TWELVE, what a great concept!!

Yes they are selling the logo and design, but the idea and the impact can be heard all over the world. BE TWO-TWELVE!!

Being TWO-TWELVE is all over the Bible.....
Ecclesiastes 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, verily, do it with all your might; for there is no activity or planning or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol where you are going.
Philippians 1:9-10 And this I pray, that your love may abound (i.e., excel) still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment, so that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ; 11 having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. (NET)
2 Corinthians 8:7 But as you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, and in all eagerness and in the love from us that is in you—make sure that you excel in this act of kindness too. (NET)
1 Thessalonians 3:12 And may the Lord cause you to increase and abound (excel) in love for one another and for all, just as we do for you, 3:13 so that your hearts are strengthened in holiness to be blameless before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
1 Thessalonians 4:1 Finally then, brethren, we request and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that, as you received from us instruction as to how you ought to walk and please God (just as you actually do walk), that you may excel still more. (NASB)
1 Thessalonians 4:10 for indeed you do practice it (love) toward all the brethren who are in all Macedonia. But we urge you, brethren, to excel still more (NASB)
1 Corinthians 10:31 So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. (NET)
Matthew 23:37-38 Jesus said to him, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 22:38 This is the first and greatest commandment.

I am so excited about this -- going to use it in my life, with my children, with our small group... in all we do!!

I am going to BE TWO-TWELVE!--And I challenge you to do the same!!
