5) He saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done but because of his mercy.
10) Warn a divisive person once, then warn him a second time. After that have nothing to do with him.
14) Our people must learn to devote them selves to doing what is good ,in order they may provide for daily necessities and not live unproductive lives.
When I read Titus 3:5 I think, wow that's right we weren't saved for what we did or will do, we were saved because our god is a merciful loving God, he cares about us and while he wont make us fallow him, his arms are always open when we come to our senses.
Titus 3:10 reminds me that many time I have heard "fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. I wont let it happen again." I love the fact that I found a scripture about that and I see how I can apply that in my daily life and I can think of times that I should have.
Titus 3:14 is also a reminder to me, do good, get good. and the same as you reap what you sow, this is a very important way to live and has been stated many times in may ways throughout the bible, so this has to be words to heed.
At one time I thought the only rules to live by are the Ten Commandments, I am realizing as I dive further and further into the bible that it is full of wonderful incite and the Ten Commandments are important and a great place to start, however if I really in my heart of hearts want to become a more godly woman, then I need to read more scripture, open myself to learn more from Gods word and start living a more Godly life by not only trying to be more like Jesus, but also by reading applying and fallowing Gods word.
Prayer: Dear Lord, thank you for leading me more into your word Lord and please help me to continue this and not become distracted, when I keep my eyes fixed on you Lord I am happier in my life and feel more fulfilled, thank you so much Lord for all your blessings and also for all of my trials, thank you for loving me, wanting me, and being patient with my thick hardheadedness and being ever there and helping me find my way each time I get lost. In Jesus name, AMEN.
