Word of the Day: Purify yourself from everything that contaminates you
The New Testament holds many promises for us. These promises are of the help God offers us during our challenges and struggles, God's great rescue plan through the return of Christ, and the promise of eternal life.
Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.
2 Corinthians 7:1
In 2 Corinthians 7:1, we are called to seek purity in our lives, because of the promises God has made to us. Through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we have the promise of redemption and eternal life. Therefore, as beloved of God, our desire should be to live a purified life both in body and spirit.
Purifying the body involves taking care of our physical temple, our body. We should distance ourselves from harmful practices and habits that do not honor God. But purifying our spiritual self is equally important. We must distance ourselves from attitudes, thoughts, and feelings that damage our relationship with God and others.
Pursuing holiness is not an easy task, but a journey of continuous growth. This verse in Corinthians should remind us that we need to be building holiness and purity with reverence and fear of God. This fear is not dread, but a deep respect and awe for our Creator.
So, as we walk our path of faith, let us keep our hearts and minds focused on God's promise and strive to live a purified and sanctified life, honoring God in every area of our lives.

Word of the Day: In times of anxiety, look to Jesus!
In a crazy world that is full of uncertainty, have you ever felt lost and without hope? The answer to this deep anxiety is Jesus. In Jesus, we find an unshakable source of hope, even when the situations around us seem out of control. He triumphed over temptation, sin, and even death! There is no challenge that He cannot overcome with His almighty power.
The Word of God, the Bible, reveals to us the characteristics of Jesus, and how knowing Him can transform our lives. As we immerse ourselves in the Scriptures, we can learn about His message of love, redemption, and new life. His life events inspire us to trust Him even in the darkest of circumstances. When we trust Jesus, we experience an inner transformation that is reflected in the way we live.
Each step on the journey with Jesus brings us closer to the hope and peace we so desperately desire. He offers meaning to our lives and enables us to overcome challenges with His grace. When we entrust our burdens to Him, we find relief and direction.
So if you feel lost in the storms of this world, remember that Jesus is the anchor of hope. Allow His presence to steady your life, offering comfort in darkness and joy in tribulations. With faith, open your heart to Him, study His Word, and trust in His ability to transform every aspect of your journey. With Jesus by your side, you will discover a renewed hope and a life full of purpose.
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”
