1/7/14

1 Thess. 4:7 "For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life"

Holiness will probably be the theme of my devotional life this year.  Last year it was discipline; which was mildly successful.  I think I want to keep devoted myself to discipline, but I want to discipline myself for holiness.

Tomorrow, 1/8. I'm going to fast before PEAK.  I want to pray and focus myself for holiness.  Paul says that sanctification is controlling our body (or at least that is a part of it) 4:3-4.  Sanctification is not allowing our lusts (not just sexual, but indeed sexual applies) to dictate our actions.

I want to tell my body "no" to food tomorrow in order to train myself to say no to other lusts as well.  I also want to spend some real time reading and meditating.
