Serve God With A Pure Heart

1 Peter 1:21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

22       Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

23       Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.  (KJV)

   We reach for things that we should not have and go in ways we should not go and then at the end of it all we expect to put on a robe of righteousness  and a crown of life.
