Yeah, thats right another game that leads rockbridge 3-0, today was pretty good, it went by fast, and i anticipated to go to Erin's game, where her and her team rocked the socks off of southern Maryland.Go Erin, yeah she didnt hit anyone down, but oh well. yeah that was pretty much the highlight of my day.
and as i promised a scripture. :D
Galatians 5:14-25:14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."15 If you keep on biting and devouring each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 17 For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Yeah some of this may seem harsh, but its true. I mainly put this in because it talks about the war inside us. Lately my sinful nature has gotten more of a hold of me than i like, so now i am retaliating. also i pointed out this scripture because it tells us how we should live our lives...and if you ever go astray, jsut pray (heh that rhymed) I dunno i don't have a big teaching on this passage like i usually have teaching on passages. But for some reason I felt that God wanted me to put it on here, so i did.
God Bless :D

Those are some very powerful verses!! It's so easy to let the sinful nature take over lives, but it's comferting to know that the Holy Spirit can help us fight against it and live a life for God.
These are great verses. They are totally true but then again DUH they're in the bible!!!!!
Wow, that was to long for me to read now, but I will read it in the morning. And no I did not go to bed yet.
yay for erin!
grammer correction, its shutouts not shutdowns, shutdowns is when you turn off something, etc your pc. Talk to my dad, believe me we had a long conversation about it
i like the verses
Brian, do you and Erin like eachother or what?
That basically covers all the categories of sins teens (especially I) have to deal with. It's really encourging.
