Purpose Driven Life chapters 5 and 6

Hey guys, sorry its taken so long for me to write blogs 5 and 6.sorry. but here they are:

Chapter 5: Seeing Life from God's View

Something to remember: The way we SEE ourselves is the way we SHAPE our lives. The way we view our lives will influence how we spend our time, our money and our talents and how we value each relationship that we have.

Verse to remember: " Do not conform yourselves to the standards of the world, but let god transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. Then you will be able to know the will of God" ~Romans 12:2

The statement(s) that was the most impactful: Life on earth is a test, a trust and a TEMPERARY ASSIGNMENT

THE MORE GOD GIVES YOU, THE MORE RESPONSIBLE HE EXPECTS YOU TO BE!!!

Other thoughts: God gives us many tests in our lives. Every little thing we do, he watches

Chapter 6: Life is a Temporary Assignment

Something to remember: We are just visiting earth. Our identity is in eternity and our homeland is heaven.

Verse to remember: "Your cheating on God. If all you want is your way, flirting with the world every chance you get, you end up enemies of God and his ways" James 4:4

"We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal" ~2nd Corinthians 4:18

The statement(s) that was the most impactful: In order to keep us from becoming too attached to the things of the world, god allows us to feel pain and problems.

"When life gets tough, when you're overwhelmed with doubt, or when you wonder if living for Christ is worth the effort, remember that you are not home yet. At death you wont leave home you'll GO home" <<<<<<<<<<< I LOOOOOVE that! I am homesick!! read MJ's blog about that!!

gotta go to bed now!! SSOOOOO exhausted
