You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly exhibited as crucified! The only thing I want to learn from you is this: Did you receive the Spirit by doing the works of the law or by believing what you heard?

Speak no evil
Treat everyone with courtesy and respect, speak evil of no one to avoid quarreling. Do not gossip, or fight with anyone, because this is not what Christ has called us to do.

Here am I…

Be at work…
When you are hired for a job do you watch for when the boss is looking and then make it look like you are working? Do you work harder or more diligently when the boss is looking, or when others can see you? When you are alone do you surf the web and do personalContinue reading “Be at work…”
