New Verses!

Hey TL's!

STAY TRUE TO YOUR COMMITMENT! I love you all, and can't express this enough! For this to be a true movement, we have to be people who DO what we SAY. Amen? This statement does not seek to condemn, but to help grow! I feel so out of touch with so many of you! I miss reading E-grams, which are not meant to be a chore, but a way to keep lines of communication open! I so badly want to know your struggles, your triumphs, your victories and losses! Looking now, M,W,F,Sun, is a little more that I had initially thought, but try to touch base with me at least three times a week! Beyond that, make sure you are consistent with your memorization! People will only follow leaders, so don't forget the power behind the vision of what we do! Let's look at what we've learned!

Week 1
Romans 8:6
2nd Corinthians 10:5

God taught me that as I replace earthly thoughts with his thoughts, he fills me with his life and peace! And as I truly take these thoughts captive, my life becomes obedient to Christ. You have thought 50,000 thoughts today alone. How many brought you closer to Christ?

Week 2
1 Peter 5:9-10
Galatians 2:20

God continued to teach me that the only true way for me to live abundant life is for myself to become as less as possible that HE may become more. Furthermore, when the storms come; and they will, I'm not alone. Not only am not alone, but after I have suffered he will restore, confirm, strengthen and establish me. Amen, and amen.

Week 3
Colossians 3:14
Mark 12:30-31

This world is all about love. We don't simply seek to change our thoughts that God may fill us with more peace, but that through his thoughts, our actions would become as his. Our love as his love. Put on love. Love God with everything. Love others as yourself. Love God, love people. The reason we are here.

Week 4
Isaiah 50:10
Matt 7:13-14

I know it seems I often throw double verses at you guys, but some verses have to be taken in with the verses surrounding them! Let these verses speak to you. God is the God of faith. When we can not see him. When we don't know where he is. Or when we know he is sleeping under the storm. Yet, hope is not what we can see. Next, as school comes, it will be easier to choose the wider gate leading to destruction. It is always easier to choose this road. Choose your road, and go for a walk. Love you guys so much, and miss hearing from you! Send some E-Grams!

Much love,
Matt Allen

THE 'ETC REVOLUTION' IS DEDICATED TO THE MEMORIZATION OF SCRIPTURE AND BEING ABLE TO USE IT TO NOT ONLY ENRICH OUR WALKS WITH CHRIST, BUT TO FURTHER THE KINGDOM OF GOD BY SHARING HIS LOVE AND WORD TO EVERYONE WITH LOVE, COMPASSION, ENCOURAGEMENT, PRAYER, AND WISDOM. ETC STANDS FOR 'EVERY THOUGHT CAPTIVE,' WHICH IS TAKEN DIRECTLY FROM 2 CORINTHIANS 10:5
