Sat // Build :: Encouragement
Title: Encouragement takes courage to give Encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” – Hebrews 3:13a Encouragement takes courage to give.

Fri // Steel :: Example
Title: Be Strong but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity. – 1 Timothy 4:12b I think about a couple of scripture verses, Philippians 4:8 – Titus 2:7.

Title: I Trust You Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Romans 12:1 “Come on, son, let’s go for a walk.” “Where are we going pop?” I can only imagine the […]
