Romans 10:17 “Faith comes by hearing and HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD.” Isn’t that interesting that God says faith comes by hearing and not by seeing?
That faith comes by hearing the Word of God!
If wisdom, understanding and knowledge played this great of a role in the creation, how important are they for us as we steward God’s world? Managing the earth and its resources cannot be done in a whimsical fashion. If we want to do make a difference we need to take the time to study our endeavors and learn them well, for God has embedded His knowledge throughout His creation and we are called to search for that knowledge and use it.

What a way for a book of the Bible to finish! Yet the book of Judges chronicles a time when Israel forsook God and His ways. If you could look at the end of your life, what do you want to say? The decisions that we make now will determine whether history will judge us as following after the Lord and all His ways, or simply doing what we saw fit.

You know there are people on this site that are not Christians but are very good people who make decisions on gut instinct, 50% of the Earth's Population is non-Christian. More wars and death have been perpetrated in the Name of Christianity than any other Faith (though Islam is catching up).
Posting a daily verse is one thing but when you start Proselytizing your going too far

2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 (NIV)
With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
