Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor
– 1 Thessalonians 4:4 (New Living Translation (©2007)
Even though we are free because of God’s grace that’s no excuse to live any old way you want to.

Stiving to get closer to Jesus every day and sharing what I learn.
Our bodies are made of clay, yet we have the treasure of the Good News in them. This shows that the superior power of this treasure belongs to God and doesn’t come from us.
– 2 Corinthians 4:7 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
Even though God works through us we must remember that the power comes from Him and not ourselves.

This is the life we have seen and heard. We are reporting about it to you also so that you, too, can have a relationship with us. Our relationship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.
– 1 John 1:3 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
True Christianity is all about relationship with our Creator…not religion.

The god of this world has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. As a result, they don’t see the light of the Good News about Christ’s glory. It is Christ who is God’s image.
– 2 Corinthians 4:4 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
You can plead and beg but it’s the Holy Spirit that opens the eyes of the unbeliever to see Jesus.
