Galatians 5:19-26
When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.
Walk in the Light, as He is in the Light! from 1John 1:7
"Get rid of the evil eye of desire that starts in our heart's and minds; let go and sin no more" MB
"Secret sins are hidden behind closed doors. God is not fooled; these destroy us" MB
Have you found yourself sinking into and drowning in the Slough of Despond?
Are you looking for a hand to reach down and lift you out of the mud and mire?
Reach out. Take the hand of Jesus. He is just an arm's length away.
He will lift you out of that dark stench of corruption, fold you into his loving embrace, and carry you HOME!
All you have to do is just rest in His faithfull arms.
You're almost HOME!
