LIVING FOR THE WILL OF GOD
1 Peter 4:1-11
Time is short. Live for Jesus.
There are two options for the pursuit of your life:
Personal desires.
The will of God.
Resolve to live for God…
…with all you’ve been given
…in the time you’ve been given.
To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
