Today's Scripture Challenge scrapbook page is featuring the word LIVE. There are so many different things I could say about this word, but I love reading what the Word of God says about it. My scriptures are found in the New King James Version. They are:
Deuteronomy 30:19-20
"I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may LIVE; that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them."
Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who LIVE, but Christ LIVES in me; and the life which I now LIVE in the flesh I LIVE by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
Phillipians 1:21
For to me to LIVE is Christ, and to die is gain.
John 11:25
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall LIVE."
My journaling speaks of when I was growing up surrounded by faithful men and women of God and all the influence they had on how I live my life. Sometimes I saw things I didn't agree with so I chose a different path based on their lifestyles and sometimes I saw things I greatly admired so I would choose to pursue those things. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had to live my life for God. The stickers I added say:
LIVE WELL...LAUGH OFTEN...LOVE MUCH
YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE BUT IF YOU WORK IT RIGHT, ONCE IS ENOUGH
NEVER LIVE FASTER THAN YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL CAN FLY.
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope this encourages you and will make you think about the way you live and how you can choose LIFE like the first scripture says!
