Seeing Red

 

James 4:8-10

 

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. 

Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 

Be wretched and mourn and weep. 

Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

James 3:17-18

 

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Peace

 

I love this.

 

Hear, O Israel

The Lord Our God

The Lord is One.

1.  What gives your life meaning or purpose? 

Why does it do that for you?

I believe there is a plan. Now this. Then that. I suppose that knowledge gives me comfort because I believe I am following the way and there is a way. I am not just wandering around. I have a purpose already. (So do you.) Life doesn't have to give us one. We were born this way.

2.  How do you define success and happiness for yourself?  

Success is a life full of love. If you love others, you're good.

3.  What lessons have your biggest challenges taught you?  

God is real and I am not Him. Funny thing to learn, right?

4.  How do you want to impact the world or those around you?

I want you to know the Lord is for you, not against you. 

You were created for a purpose. You have things to do. 

Me. You?

 

ADONAI your God, who goes before

you, He Himself will fight for you—just

as He did for you in Egypt before your

own eyes, and in the wilderness,

where you saw how ADONAI your

God carried you as a man carries his

son, everywhere you went, until you

came to this place.

Deuteronomy 1:30
