You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. — Mark 12:30
Faith in God is not just a feeling, it might start with that, but you have to use the mind that God has given you to learn from His word, to get to know Him more and to love Him with all your being. Read entire chapter here.

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever. — Isaiah 40:8
Everything in this world in temporal, grass withers, flowers fade, cars rust, houses crumble. The only thing that lasts forever is the hope we have in Jesus and the eternal life we have in Him. Read entire chapter here.

So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. — James 1:19
The fleshly body can often offend by the quick words that we speak. Let the Spirit lead you in listening to others, then thinking first before you speak, if you should speak at all. Read entire chapter here.

The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe. — Proverbs 29:25

But God knows the depths of our hearts and He still loves up the same. His love is indescribable. We can trust in Him and feel safe in His arms. Read entire chapter here.

Even if you are rich, that doesn’t necessary make you…

Living a Purpose Filled Life
Third email reply I sent my friends after I sent them some links about dinosaur tissue finds: (read the first& second replies) My belief in God is not temporary in the least; Jesus has a death grip on my heart, His death on the cross. Hinduism, belief in Brahman, the unchangeable god that is everything and everything is him, including us.

Once we are “enlightened,” we become part of or absorbed into Brahman. There’s Brahman changing again and we lose our identity…
