Romans 1:9 (NKJV) - For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers,

Concerning Almsgiving

1 “Beware of practicing your righteousness before others in order to be seen by them, for then you have no reward from your Father in heaven.

2 “So whenever you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. 3 But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your alms may be done in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Concerning Prayer

5 “And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. 6 But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

7 “When you are praying, do not heap up empty phrases as the gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

9 “Pray, then, in this way:

Our Father in heaven, may your name be revered as holy. 10 May your kingdom come. May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And do not bring us to the time of trial, but rescue us from the evil one.

14 “For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Concerning Fasting

16 “And whenever you fast, do not look somber, like the hypocrites, for they mark their faces to show others that they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that your fasting may be seen not by others but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Concerning Treasures

19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

The Eye

22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. So if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, 23 but if your eye is unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If, then, the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!

Serving Two Masters

24 “No one can serve two masters, for a slave will either hate the one and love the other or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.

Do Not Worry

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to your span of life? 28 And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear?’ 32 For it is the gentiles who seek all these things, and indeed your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

34 “So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today’s trouble is enough for today. — Matthew 6 | New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition (NRSVUE) New Revised Standard Version, Updated Edition.

if a Christian ever complains or asks why we should love our enemies— what good reason is there for loving someone who would willingly do you harm?

Because it’s what God did.

We tend to forget. Sinful man hates God.

We willingly killed Christ. But it wasn’t a surprise to Jesus. The Lord of heaven and earth willingly came down to a people who hated Him, and He did the most loving thing that has ever been done. He died for them. He took their judgement for them, and He gave everything righteous of Himself to a people who despised Him.

He chose us. He loved us first.

Love your neighbors. Love your enemies.

!Baddie Alert!

I literally eat pray love Mary Mags. My favorite disciple/apostle if we're being frank! The Jesus narrative would feel a bit more complete if she had a greater role in the gospels. Good thing we have apocrypha! Especially since that whole "she was a prostitute" scandal (which, btw, what we're not gonna do is shame sex work). She deserves to exude power (and trendiness since, after all, she did wear the hair suit before it was cool).

He kicks Talon in the stomach on principle

a sharp OOF is elicited as he falls back, before they shift into a cartwheel and regain balance . thin brows crease as gold - painted brims stretch into his signature grin . hand of armored claws coming to reach down for their sword .

“ quite the funny guy, aren’t you ? ”

the blade is drawn to catch light and glisten beneath it, skirt flowing freely as he straightens up .

“ good ! i’ve been craving a laugh . ”

#♡ | « hear my GOSPEL ! » ( ic ) #♡ | « bow DOWN before the one you SERVE . » ( asks ) #thank you for the ask !!!! ♥️ #feel free to continue too hehe

Nobody is worthy to enter into Kingdom of God , for indeed it is given not by works but inheritance to those who serve Him who has authority to give and to take. Jesus is the only way, whether you like it or not has no significance

"Whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave. Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give His life as a ransom for many."
