Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. – Deuteronomy 6:5 Have you ever known someone who was really passionate about something?

Pray continually – 1 Thessalonians 5:17 If you have ever run out of gas, you might feel slightly embarrassed sitting on the side of the road watching everyone else drive by.

Thu // Warrior :: Battle
For the battle is not yours, but God’s – 2 Chronicles 20:15c Video games are popular with just about everyone today. One consistent, top-selling game genre is the first person shooters.

Wed // Grit :: Committed
Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this – Psalm 37:5 Personally, one of the things I dislike about technology is how easy it is to be non-committal. If we don’t want to go to something, we can just text someone and tell them we can’t make it. Commitment […]
