A Life Jesus Will be Proud Of

Here is a cool Prayer from The Book of Philippians, Chapter 1 (The Message)

...it is my Prayer for my family and the community in which I live....It is my Prayer for you reading this blog....Pray it for your family, your community and your self today, that you all would live a life Jesus will be proud of!

9-11 So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover's life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God (Emphasis Added).

Frome 18-21 Through your faithful prayers and the generous response of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, everything he wants to do in and through me will be done. I can hardly wait to continue on my course.

From 27-30 Meanwhile, live in such a way that you are a credit to the Message of Christ.
