Thought for  Today - August 2, 2024
While We Wait
 By: Robert A. Searles
While
 we exercise our faith and patiently wait for that blessed hope of the 
Lord's promise 0f his coming for his church, may we live  each day in 
great expectation that it may be today, and have oil in our lamps and 
the wicks trimmed and live in such a way that we will not be ashamed  to
 meet him in the air  Let us follow Paul's message to the Thessalonians 
and strive to please God.
“In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” 
1 Thessalonians 5:18 
“That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.” 
"Furthermore
 then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that 
as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye 
would abound more and more.For this is the will of God, even
 your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication "For God 
hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.He therefore that
 despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his 
holy Spirit." 1Thesalonians 4; 1-8
 
 "That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.But
 I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which 
are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope."
