Thanks for the nomination @paradise-found!
I've been meaning to do this one for a while now, but never got around to it until today. It was actually eleven long days ago that @paradise-found nominated me to participate in this one. Thanks for being patient!
MY FAVORITE BIBLE VERSE
Seriously, asking someone for their favorite Bible verse in my opinion is like looking our over a vast field of marvelous flowers and asking someone which one they like best. With so many powerful, true, and inspiring verses to choose from, where does one even begin?
Over my walk with the Lord these past eleven years, a lot of things in my life have changed, and changed again. Certain verses really stick out and mean a lot at various times, and even the ones that don't can still be incredibly applicable. At the moment though, my life is on a certain path. I'm trying to shed a lot of the mental strongholds that society and culture saturate us with. I'm trying to avoid whatever presuppositions that I can and just look at things from God's point of view. This transitional state that I'm in has lasted for years already, and we've got a ways to go. It has required us to give up a lot, but we've gained so much more. In this current journey, the following verse (half really) has meant a lot to me.
"For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil." (1 John 3:8b)
This is applicable on so many levels, and has given me great hope as we persevere and press on. A lot of my life seems to be theory sometimes, but I'm going to trust what God says and stick with that!
