Your Body is God Dwelling Place

How do you treat your body? Do you treat it with the respect in deserves or do you take it for granted? Well, the Bible has clear instructions on how we should care for our bodies.

God's Word teaches us that our bodies are God's living temple. It belongs to God. We are commanded (not suggested) to treat our bodies with honor and respect. We do so when we choose to make wise consistent choices.

Do you sincerely seek to improve the overall quality of your life and your health? Then promise yourself and God that you will begin to make the kind of wise choices that will lead to a longer, healthier, happier life.  The responsibility for those choices is yours. And so are the rewards.

Clothe with Righteousness, Crowned with Humility

I am Living Proof

Do Not Be Deceived

Don't judge someone just because they sin differently than you do.

When we focus our thoughts and conversations on the shortcomings of others, we're usually being deceived about our own conduct. Jesus commands that we not concern ourselves with the wrongs of others when we have just about the same amount of wrongs as they do. (See Matthew 7:3-Five)

We cannot change others, only God can

We cannot change ourselves, only God can.

Allow God to heal you first, and then you will be able to humbly, lovingly and effectively help others.

You can't not fix anyone else's crazy until you have fixed your own.

Praise Him Anyway

Rejection is God's protection.

Everyone will not approve of the way God moves in your life. And that is Ok, choose to praise Him anyway. The addiction of approval will leave you outside of the will of God if you seek man's validation. It's hard to stand alone when others disapprove of you, but stand firm. Stand firm in what God says about you because the truth is what other people's opinions of you do not really matter; only what God thinks of you is important.

Am I trying to win the favor of men, or of God. Galatians 1:Ten

If I seek the popularity if men, it will be hard for me to please God.

Don't Give Up

Are you a person who doesn't give up easily, or are you quick to bail out when the going gets tough?

If you've developed the unfortunate habit of giving up at the first sign of trouble, it's probably time for you to have a heart to heart talk with that person you see every time you look in the mirror.

A well-lived life is like a marathon, not a sprint. It calls for preparation, determination, and lots of perseverance. As an example of perfect perseverance, you need to look no further than your Savior, Jesus Christ.

Jesus finished what he began. Despite His suffering and despite the shame of the cross, Jesus was steadfast in His faithfulness to God. You, too, should remain faithful, especially when times are tough.

Are you facing a difficult situation? If so, remember this: whatever the problem, God can handle it. Your job is to keep persevering until He does.

Pick A Side, Pick a side

There are some temptations that we cause on ourselves.
