THROUGH THE BIBLE IN THREE YEARS
We don't become more moral as we get older, we just tend to choose our sins more carefully.

Righteousness is found only in those who have chosen to follow Christ.
It is a manner of exhibiting our love for Him.
Righteousness is not a matter of growing in morality.
It is a matter of choosing to love God, and to follow His Word daily.
It is a matter of loving Christ, and doing His will.
The Bible says, "And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness." (Eph 4:24)
For those who choose to love God and follow His Word, the Bible says God
"loveth righteousness;" and "His countenance doth BEHOLD" them.
(Ps 11:7 above)
Also, For those who choose to love God and follow His Word, the Bible says,
God "loveth him." (Prov 15:9 above)
In other words, God LOVES and WATCHES OVER those who surrender to Christ and choose to live according to His will in their lives.
I both want and need that in my life!
Don't you?
Love ya,
Bruce
