     | 10,805 views

    The PURPOSE of the Father is to transform us into the likeness of the CHARACTER of Christ, which is expressed by the FRUIT of the Spirit. We are to heed God's call by surrendering to Him, cooperating with Him, and remaining in Christ.

    Do you remember the good times in life? God told Joshua to make sure and remember by setting up a memorial. He said when your children ask, remind them of my goodness!

    Paul loved the church at Philippi and was committed to praying for them. We need to share the same commitment to pray for the church. There are real people with real needs, that need specific prayers.
