You also
1 Timothy 4 is wonderful. Couple of excerpts
Verse 4-5
For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with Thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.
Verse 10
That is why we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, and especially those who believe.
We serve a wonderful loving God. Praise the Lord.
Blessings on all today.

Thanks for sharing! Been reading Jude lately and this is a good bolt on to what you shared:

A Call to Persevere

17But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. 18They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires." 19These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.

20But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, 21keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

22Be merciful to those who doubt; 23save others by snatching them from the fire; to others show mercy, mixed with fearhating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.

Doxology

24To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy 25to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.

“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."

-Matthew 6:34

My senior year at A&M, I got to lead a group of guys at GBC through I and II Timothy. Still remember many of the verses I memorized that spring.

94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough
