Application is better than accumulation

Gaining a true understanding of God's word is far more important than the ability to recite scripture on demand.
When you read Gods word it's like hooking yourself to an IV. His vision for your life spreads through you. It's up to you to allow it to show threw in your everyday life. But we must remember that good works do not save us , but they display our faith.
Read James 2:17-26
How can you apply Gods word into your life?

You Can't Buy or Earn God's Love

Day 21 of the 21 Day Intentional Prayer Challenge. We have made it! I pray that we have all gained strength during this time of intentional prayer and being present in our worship and communication with God. As we close out this challenge I pray that each of you have established a new level of rest in God. He is most definitely listening to our prayers and If we listen he will speak to us. Guiding us every step of the way. I will close out this challenge with this. We must remember that God's love is already ours. He has given it freely. John 3:16 We can not buy or earn God's love. As good as we may feel from this purposely set aside time to commune with him don't feel like you have done good therefore earning his love. If you didn't stick with it don't feel that you have somehow become unworthy of his love. God's love has no beginning or ending. Live life fully responding to his love not in hopes of attaining or keeping it.
