Try being impressed with God for his mercy and faithfulness towards you.

They are new . . . Every morning!

Lamentations 3:22 (KJV) – it is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

We don’t realize how much we allow sin to control us.

There are those who try to catch God in a lie.

He does what he says.

He’s not you.

Watch out for what comes to you dressed up.

It can look just like what you’re looking for.

Be careful . . . you just may be pushing away an angel.

Just as the winds blow against the currents, so do we fight against God’s will.

The difference . . . you have a choice.

Galatians 5:16 (KJV) – this I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

In baptism, you die to sin, and live in Christ.

Therefore, you haven’t lived, until you’ve died.

There is life after death, in this life.

We are to be forgivers.

Just as you were forgiven by Christ, you ought to forgive others.

We have friends and family that we tell everything.

God wants you to talk to him.

Tell him everything.

Don’t just pray for yourselves, but for others.
