Words to Live By

Timeless Truth

“Why are you so angry?” the Lord asked him. “Why do you look so d\ejected?

     You will be accepted if you respond in the right way.

     But if you refuse to respond correctly, then watch out!

     Sin is waiting to attack and destroy you, and you must subdue it.”

Genesis 4:6-7 NLT

Thoughtful Wisdom

“Though this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us,

     We will not fear, for God has willed His truth to triumph through us.

     The prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him.

     His rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure.

     One little word shall fell him.”

          – Martin Luther 

Treasured Gifts

Thank God for mercy and forgiveness when you sin, 

      and for “one little word” (the name of Jesus) to bring you victory over the evil one. 

Today’s Affirmation 

Counting on Christ who is fighting alongside me in my battles with temptation,

          I will look forward to the ultimate celebration of winning the war.
