For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:38-39

For a child will be born to us,
A son will be given to us;
And the government will rest on His shoulders;
And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them."

Ephesians 2: 8-10 NASB

Thank you, God..for being greater in me..than he who is in the world.

Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this:
to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world."
James 1:27

I was just looking at this verse again Sis..and it always amazes me that it does not

say that "pure and undefiled religion" is going to church, studying the Word, giving

tithes..although these necessary things are mentioned elsewhere in the Bible.

It echoes what Christ said in Matthew 25:40,

"Just as you did it to the least of these my children, you did it unto me."

"and to keep oneself unstained by the world"

This part seemed to pop out at me because as I see it....serving God also means that it's also my job to keep myself free from known sin _as_ a part of my service to others. In other words...if I am to be a living witness I need to be sure to represent the holiness of God to the best of my ability. That takes balance and tons of humility, willingness & honesty.

My life verse.. it has been shared here before, but I never tire of reading it.

Quote:
Jeremiah 29:11

11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

(Insert your name) don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God
what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your heart and mind as you live in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7 NLT

Matthew 5 (New International Reader's Version)

14 "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill can't be hidden. 15 Also, people do not light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand. Then it gives light to everyone in the house.

16 "In the same way, let your light shine in front of others. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will praise your Father who is in heaven

1 John 4:7

American King James Version

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loves is born of God, and knows God.
