Thoughts on Today’s Verse from verseoftheday.com

Power! We like that concept. Power! But if it is to be godly, power alone does not make us right. Godly power must be accompanied by love and self-discipline. These three together make a person’s life effective, constructive, and godly. Live life to its fullest: not as a closet Christian afraid of standing true and firm, but as a disciple who lives by God’s power, shares God’s love, and displays God’s virtues through a disciplined life of love and grace and power.
