“God’s Holy Temple”Throughout the course of a life,
we experience many things.Many of us make the start of the
new year a time to make newresolutions and goals that wereflect upon throughout the
year. The Bible says our bodiesare temples, and the Holy Ghost
resides in us, and as such wemust keep our bodies free ofthings that would not glorify
God. As Christians we arechildren of the light, and we
should remember to takeinventory of our spiritual and
physical bodies throughout theyear. We pray unceasingly toJesus, who renews, confronts,
forgives, loves, and nurtures us.By doing this we shine as a
beautiful holy Temple filledwith the Holy Spirit and the
glory of God who is the authorof love, hope, peace, and eternal
life that we can share withothers. - Rev. Roger PlessenThe Women’s Fellowship -
