A NEW YOU FOR THE NEW YEAR

Hebrews 11:6
If you please God, it doesn't make any difference who you displease. And if you don't please God, it doesn't make any difference who you please. The Christian's number one job is to please God.

Now that's not the idea many people have of God. The idea many people have of God is God is a mean God, that God is constantly out to get you, that God is constantly out to show you where you're wrong, and God is waiting for you to make a mistake so He ca ...
