The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

2 Corinthians 10:3-5, “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh,

4 for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction

of fortresses. 5 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the

knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ…”

From the day you were saved, you were in a battle –a battle to be all the LORD wants

you to be. The battles we fight are not waged and won by how smart we are. They are

won by the LORD’s divine power. But that being so, why are we even involved? Why

doesn’t He just do it all by Himself? It’s because He has designed to use us in the process.

What do we do to enable Him to use us? We think only of good and holy things! That’s

what Paul meant when he said, “…taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.”

Have you ever considered that you become what you think? Just as your body functions

best when you eat the proper foods, your mind and life become what you think! Think good

thoughts. Stay away from everything that “is raised up against the knowledge of God.”

We love and pray for you all,

Nana & Dado III
