Purpose in Life verses

Colossians 3:17 -- And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Mark 12:29-31 -- 'The most important one,' answered Jesus, 'is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these.'

Proverbs 16

My pastor again preached from Prov. 16. Today's sermon covered vs. 16-33. There sure are some nuggets in there!

vs. 20: "He who gives attention to the word will find good, And blessed is he who trusts in the LORD."

vs. 32: "He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, And he who rules his spirit, than he who captures a city." The corresponding sentence in the fill-in-the-blank outline is "INNER MASTERY IS FAR BETTER THAN OUTWARD MACHO."

vs. 33: "The lot is cast into the lap, But its every decision is from the LORD."

Alrighties...
