Psalm 25: 18
"Put an end to my affliction and suffering and take away all my sins."

It is sin that separates us from God. Most people don't like to talk about sin any more, maybe because the lines between good and evil are unclear to them nowadays, as society does a really good job of trying to convince us that evil things are not so evil anymore. If you visualize the way the world and society are now, it would seem a scary scenario. I can almost see how fine the line we walk is, amid the flames of evil as we try to do good and stay on the path with Jesus. It is no wonder many find it difficult to see their way to Jesus. It is so important to pray and be in God's word so that you are able to resist the ways of the world and to keep Jesus within your sight and your final goal which is heaven. Jesus died for our sins and through our belief in His death and resurrection we will be strong on our journey to eternal life with Him. It is our duty as Christians to be a light to shine for others to also find their way. The flames cannot touch us as when we stay close to Jesus, we must stay convicted in this. Accept God's grace, keep your eyes on Jesus and know you will be victorious on your journey.

Isaiah 43: 1-4
"Fear not for I have redeemed you, I have called you by name you are mine. When you pass through the water, I will be with you; in the rivers you shall not drown. When you walk through fire, you shall not be burned; the flames shall not consume you, for I am the Lord your God."
"Because you are precious in My eyes and are glorious and because I love you."

John 14: 6
"I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but through Me.

John 3: 16
"Yes, God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him may not die but have eternal life."
