It would be a beautiful world if people would put God's ways first and really work together to combat evil, escape personal sin, heal broken relationships, and Strive to honor Him with the short time we are given. I don't want to merely exist on this earth. I want to strive for excellence for His glory!
“People do not drift toward Holiness.
Apart from grace-driven Effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord.
We Drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; we drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; we drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated." by D.A. Carson For the Love of God
