Remember that the best things in life come from God and not what we can or others can do for us. So seek God’s hand in all that you do.
When people we love die by the hand of someone else, this can cause anyone to act out in anger.
It is important that we learn to forgive as God forgives us. And in doing this, we will learn to love as God loves us, for this is doing as Jesus taught us.
Now, for those of you that answered Yes to only prayer and reading the Bible, praise God, for you are unique in the eyes of God.
Matthew 6 :33 (KJV)
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
What is important in life, in order to be on the right path, is that we change our environment that we are in. This is how we can stop willfully sinning.
Matthew 6 :33,34 (KJV)

So my question for you all is, do you even want to be saved? If so, then you should know what to do with your life?
Matthew 6 :19-21 (KJV)
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,...
It is true that what you are doing with your life now is either drawing you to God or away from Him. This is why most people that I am even speaking to now are on the path of destruction and don’t even realize it.
So what does it look like to trust in God with our whole heart? Well, it means doing as He commands us and giving up things that are holding us back from following Him.
Counseling is an option when our marriage is on the rocks. This is especially true if your spouse is willing to go down this road. Re-courting our spouse also helps.

22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

You know what’s interesting? These people that don’t make time for God are also very wicked. Not only do they have idols in their lives, because of the things I’ve mentioned, but they willfully sin as well.
Matthew 6 :7,8 (KJV)

Matthew 6 :12-15 (KJV)

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power,...
So was forgiveness given to Joseph’s brothers, even after all they had done to him? The question can be answered in Genesis, chapter 50, starting with verses 15, through 21.
Please know that the moment that Joseph insisted that his brothers bring his younger brother down to Egypt, before they could buy any food, is when His walls were still up in full force against them.
It is clear that when Jesus says our whole body is in darkness, if He is not a part of it, that this should mean something to us.
Jesus explained what it takes to follow Him. He said, “he that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.”
Surely, when God speaks, we ought to pay attention. His counsel is much wiser than our own and is the only way we will be on the right path.
Matthew 6 :31-33 (KJV)
