Testimony: One of my favorite songs has these words (from the scripture) in it. It makes me think of the whole world singing a love song to Jesus in such perfect unison that God’s heart is greatly touched to see all peoples on the earth worshipping Him at the same time.

Testimony: Many adults do not have respect for authority and many children have been brought up to hate the police and government and pay no attention to the elderly. My mother said when she grew up, the policeman was everybody’s friend. He would direct traffic and all the children would say “Hi” to him while crossing the street. I praise God for the families I see that show respect to all people; they shine out as a beacon for others.

Testimony: One Bible teacher explained that God allows temptations from the devil to make you strong in that area. Being strong is saying ” NO” in Jesus’ name to that temptation. God always leaves a way to escape temptation but He tests us to see if we love sin more than His laws. The more mature Christians see sin as destruction so they immediately hate the thought of sin and dismiss it out of their mind.
