WE LOVE YOU AND ARE PRAYING FOR YOU...remember

Romans 8:28 (New International Version, ©2010)
 28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose.

Proverbs 3:5-6
1 My son/daughter, do not forget my teaching,
   but keep my commands in your heart,
2 for they will prolong your life many years
   and bring you peace and prosperity. 
 3 Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
   bind them around your neck,
   write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Then you will win favor and a good name
   in the sight of God and man. 
 5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
   and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
   and he will make your paths straight.a]'>[a]


Philippians 4:6-7 
 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 
 8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Where is the battle for control of your life fought?   Romans 8, says it is fought in the mind.  It is not what you do, but who you are that shows the commitment to the gospel life.  Being a Christian is not to enslave ourselves to God so as to be afraid of him, but it is to become his child and call him our Father. Rom 8:15.  The law was powerless to condemn sin in sinful man, so God condemned sin in sinful man by sending his son in man’s likeness as a sin offering to fully satisfy the requirements of righteousness under the law.  Man now satisfies righteousness by living according to the Spirit; meaning, they have their mind set on what the Spirit desires and no longer on the desires of their flesh (sinful nature).  Know that the mind of sinful man is death.  It is hostile to God.   It does not and cannot submit to God’s law. Rom 8:7-8.  Therefore, in his natural state, man cannot please God.  It is not what a man does, but who he is that please God.  You must declare yourself his child through the acceptance of Jesus Christ, declaring him your Father, and you must submit your mind to His Spirit and have it controlled by His Spirit; then, you will have life and peace.  This shows that the Spirit of God lives in you; meaning, you belong to Christ and carry the name Christian.
