So I had in my mind that I was going to do our verse for Ground Zero this time for my memory verse - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20: "Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? you do not belong to yourself, for God bought you for a high price. So you must honor God with your body."
It seemed fitting to use this verse as Ground Zero kicked off this week, however I was feeling a tad guilty because I have most of it memorized already (but not all of it!) and it just didn't seem very authentic because I didn't search it out and pick it for myself. So in typical God-fashion, He slapped me in the face this morning with a verse that I know I was meant to commit to my memory! Oh how I love our God and his sneaky ways! :)
So INSTEAD my second verse is "The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure."
1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT
How perfect is that?! We all face temptation every single day....but our God is so mighty and faithful that there's no mountain (or molehill) we will face that we can't overcome. Can I get an Amen?!
AMEN!
