memory verse 3. Romans 6:19-23

Confession:  I did very poorly on my memorization this week.  It's only the second week!?!?!  That's okay, though; I will continue on to scripture number three while continuing to go over this past weeks.

And with that three sentence introduction [quite possibly my shortest blog post to date] I leave you with my memory verse that I will be working on for the next two weeks.

Romans 6:19-23

New International Version (NIV) 

¹⁹ I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. ²⁰ When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. ²¹ What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! ²² But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. ²³ For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in^[b] Christ Jesus our Lord.
