Favorite Bible Verse Because sometimes I need to be reminded who I am that I can and should be a spiritual leader, I like 1 Corinthians 16:13  “Be on guard.  Stand firm in the faith.  Be courageous.  Be strong.”  Also, I like to be reminded that I work for God in all I do here at St. John’s, at home, and in our community.  This is why I also like Colossians 3:23, “Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.”
