The thee of today’s lessons is “lust,” what Proverbs calls one of the “seven deadly sins.” The only way we can conquer this deadly sin and all its consequences is that we love something or someone more, and that Someone is the Lord Jesus.
There is momentary happiness in life, but only in the Lord Jesus is there lasting joy.
It is crucial in our day that the people of God express in tangible ways our appreciation and love for one another.
Our Brother Paul was passionate about wanting to know Jesus. For Paul, it was not enough to just know Jesus, even more, he wanted to be like Jesus. May God help us to share that same passion.
