NEFFIE (Lifestyle storytelling)
WORD
The Bible is perfect. It is a necessary guidebook to "The Way" of life since we are all human (imperfect) and can't teach each- other flawlessness (that is impossible.) It is the story of the desire to create others in the image of the All Powerful: God, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God decided to make us part of His eternal plan, and did not need us out of loneliness (He had the company of the three entities mentioned above) or out of ego (He is secure and confident), but out of the eternal LOVE for us that has always been present. We always have a choice to follow God's way (the right way) and we need Him and His guidance, but many times, we have gone astray and suffered consequences. Serving God to get what we want is not the purpose, but leading others to the Truth, internal joy/peace/trust, and enjoying everlasting life with Him is the purpose. God is wise and we do not understand all of His ways, but the Creator is doubtlessly GREAT, and desiring of us constantly striving to please Him.
