We see this world now in vibrant colors. Red love passion, delicate pink, sparkling blue, magnificent green. Life seems to dazzle with opportunity. Finding the perfect blend of music, with lyrics that make you feel good. Movies that entertain one minute, and set your imagination on fire the next. Books that take your mind off any cares, and set you yearning for adventures similar to the ones in the story. Clothes that captivate your attention. Food that consumes your thoughts. Magazines. TV. Internet. Phones. Love. Friends. Cars. Texting. Social status. Skills. Knowledge. Your image.



The world has laid its net around your feet.



"The grass withers, the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever." Is. 40:8
"Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away." Mt. 24:35
"What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little time, and then vanishes." James 4:14


"No believer can withstand the assault of temptation and the encroachment of the world apart from a steady intake of the Word of God. (Nor can we feed on a diet of unholy reading material and entertainment and expect to have pure hearts and grow spiritually.)
---- Mark it down---- Your progress in holiness will never exceed your relationship with the Word of God."
