Always purging,removing the selfishness.
This is an ongoing  process of christian living.
Every small success in becoming more Christlike,
weeds out the wordly garden within.
It took many years to learn the selfishness,
that the world teaches.

It takes purpose of heart,and love for  your God,
to begin to cleanse this temple.
Selfishness is a severe taskmaster,
who teaches its lessons well.

Many see no sense in the battles
that go with being a christian.
Of course,if you aren’t having Spiritual battles,
then why aren’t you questioning
what you aren’t doing, to grow?

Were you aware that it only takes one incident
of acting on your faith to see your God
do His thing.Being so overwhelmed, that
He can; and will do what He promises: in His word.
It will take that initial step,like the first placing
your foot upon the water to begin your own action faith!
One time,of testing your faith; and seeing it really work
will change you forever.

Yes,the road is narrow,and not easy,
but now you never walk it alone.
You were on that wide road before
you found Him,remember?

My brothers and sisters,do not weary
of the good fight.
Remember the price, He paid for us always.

“For God so loved the world,that He gave
His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth
in Him should not perish,but have everlasting life.”

John 3:16
