verse of the week - 1 corinthians 1:18

"for the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." -1 corinthians 1:18

our pastor spoke on this passage this morning, and it really struck me. i am so thankful that the Holy Spirit revealed Truth to me, so that i could be saved. all that i believe is considered complete foolishness by those who haven't encountered Jesus. this is such an encouragement to live my life in a way that glorifies Him so that i can represent Him on this earth. i pray that He continues to use me to His glory. the Word has so much power to me. i read scripture and it is living, breathing, and completely relevant to my life. i am so thankful for this.

  2. Reminds me of a song by Keith Green: How Can they Live without Jesus?
    Ever heard it?
    I am grateful that I was chosen and saved, too.
    Wow, what a mess I'd be without Him!
    Hugs to you, sweet sister!
