The deadline for entry is April 1 which means whatever you do must be done before that deadline only giving you a few days to take advantage of this offer. Come up with your great ideas of how to embarrass us and put them into action! Have fun with this! :o)
Love,
Ed & Whit

Colossians 1:9-10

Here are the two verses for this week. We will regroup tomorrow to decide if we need a catchup week or some sort of incentive!

Colossians 1:9-10 NASB

9. For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10. so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;



1 - 10 all together...
Colossians 1:1-10 NASB

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.
We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints; because of the hope laid up for you in heaven, of which you previously heard in the word of truth, the gospel which has come to you, just as in all the world also it is constantly bearing fruit and increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you heard of it and understood the grace of God in truth; just as you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow bond-servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf, and he also informed us of your love in the Spirit.
For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;

Colossians 1:5-6, 7-8

Well done to those who were quoting the first 6 verses of Colossians last week. Let it be a challenge to the rest of us to keep up.

Just to catch us up, here are last weeks verses (5-6)

5 ...because of the hope laid up for you in heaven, of which you previously heard in the word of truth, the gospel6 which has come to you, just as in all the world also it is constantly bearing fruit and increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you heard of it and understood the grace of God in truth;...


And here are this weeks verses (7-8)

7 ...just as you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow bond-servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf, 8 and he also informed us of your love in the Spirit.

You can do it! Verses 7 and 8 are pretty short, giving us all a chance to catch up if we have fallen behind.
