“Whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). Begin and end your meals with prayer. Welcome your food as God’s answer to your cries for daily bread. Develop the habits and discipline to control what you put in. Get help if you can’t do it by yourself. God doesn’t necessarily demand that all his children be skinny, but he does want you to eat to be healthy. #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #21DayBibleChallenge #Youversion
I will praise you with sincere heart as I study your righteous judgments. (Psalms 119:7 NABRE) #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #DailyBibleVerses #Youversion
But like all of God’s gifts, alcohol can be and is often abused. People in the ancient world (such as Noah) figured out how to get drunk not long after they discovered basic fermentation. God hates drunkenness: “The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: . . . drunkenness. . . . I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God” (Galatians 5:19-21). Alcohol abuse can destroy families, jobs, and physical bodies. It can destroy your soul too. God chooses to treat you as a spiritual adult. He gives you a great deal of freedom in your choices. But you are not free to hurt your temple or hurt other people. Choose wisely. #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #21DayBibleChallenge #Youversion
Wait for the LORD, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the LORD! (Psalms 27:14 NABRE) #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #DailyBibleVerses #Youversion
Say to the LORD, “My refuge and fortress, my God in whom I trust.” (Psalms 91:2 NABRE) #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #DailyBibleVerses #YouVersion
Some women cannot resist the fantasy that their love (or charm or determination) will “rescue” or domesticate a bad boy. To their great sadness, it turns out that bad boys generally don’t want to be reformed. Here is God’s view: “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common?” (2 Corinthians 6:14). How can you tell if you are living a fantasy or in reality? Humble yourself. Listen to God. Listen to your family. Listen to your Christian friends. #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #21DayBibleChallenge #YouVersion
A psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack. In green pastures he makes me lie down; to still waters he leads me; he restores my soul. He guides me along right paths for the sake of his name. (Psalms 23:1 NABRE) #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #DailyBibleVerses #YouVersion
Refusal to forgive keeps you trapped in an anger prison. Refusal to forgive leads to a false sense of moral superiority. Refusal to forgive poisons and embitters your spirit. Refusal to forgive motivates Christ to withhold the forgiveness you need (yeah, seriously--check out Matthew 6:15). Here’s a better way. Fill your temple with joyful praise to your forgiving Savior. Fill your heart with the same spirit he shows you: “Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you” (Colossians 3:13). And know this--no matter how hard that may seem, the Lord will always give you the strength to do what is right. #Surrender2017 #ToGodBeTheGlory #21DayBibleChallenge #YouVersion
