1Tm5

"Some people's sins are obvious, going before them to judgment, but the sins of others surface later." But never question, sin will always eventually surface and our sins will be accounted for. It is the best practice to confess sin quickly, turn from it daily, and keep yourself in tight accountability.

The battle to follow Christ is never easy! Unlike sinning, godliness doesn't come natural for any of us. If we want to become godly, we must resist our selfish desires to sin and discipline ourselves for godliness. It seems like in almost every chapter someone is turning from God in order to follow Satan. In this chapter it is women who would rather pursue an idle and unproductive life, rather than a life that pleases God.

It is a daily challenge to stay on course. Choose today to live a life free from sin and diligently pursue Christ. What will you do today that you would not have done unless you were wanting to please Jesus? Make pleasing Jesus a habit. It will be worth it.

Live strong. Fight the good fight.
