" Setting Your Heart Right "

Mark 8:37 - " Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?"

Exchange my soul, exchange my soul for what? No one can give anything to me that would make me give away my soul. I think to exchange your soul is such a sin, a sin that i cannot even committ now. Knowing this verse. Giving away my soul would be just the same as denying God. it is not wise to give away  your soul. my soul is a gift and a blessing from God. Which i do not deserve.

You see Satan uses worldly objects, what we covet and selfishness to pull us away from God. We Christians have to be careful of what we touch, see and walk into.Mark 8:43-48 "If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out. [44] [a] 45 And if your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell. [46] [b] 47 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell, 48 where
   “‘the worms that eat them do not die,
   and the fire is not quenched.’[c]




What I am going to do is find a Bible verse that will help me when I feel i am going to turn away. That verse is Colossians 3:1-4 "Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.  When Christ, who is your[a] life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory." 


May these verses bless you and may you be able to apply them to your life.
