21 Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls.
22 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.
23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror;
24 for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.

Some days I have yearned for a personal road-map of life... you know the special book that tells us exactly what God wants us to do each day. This one needs to be customized so that I can know what jobs to apply for, which home to buy etc. You know all the hard choices...
The Living Word of God is that book. Unfortunately it was not customized for Russ Libby, but with the Holy Spirit working in me while I read God's Word, I have every thing I need for life and godliness.
