Everything We Need Is In Him!.

"His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.  Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.  For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.  For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ."  - 1 Peter 1:3-8 (NIRV)

I am thankful that whatever my circumstances may be, through His almighty power, He has given me everything that I need to keep moving in the right direction.  And, in return, I want to make every effort I can to be the best I can be for Him.  I want to give thanks in everything.  I want to praise Him with my whole heart.  He is my strong tower...my refuge...my strength.  ♥
