Sanctified wholly, or holes in you sanctification? 1 Thessalonians 5:23

Good morning everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
    Take time today to think about and study this next passage of scripture.  It is quite powerful.
1 THESSALONIANS 5:23"AND THE VERY GOD OF PEACE SANCTIFY YOU WHOLLY; AND I PRAY GOD YOUR WHOLE SPIRIT AND SOUL AND BODY BE PRESERVED BLAMELESS UNTO THE COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST."
    WOW!!  The spirit, soul, and body refer to the entire being of a person.  This expression is Paul's way of saying that God must be involved in every aspect of life.  It is wrong to think that we can separate the spiritual life from everything else, obeying God only in some things or living for him only one day each week (or possibly 1 hour a week).
    Christ must control ALL of us, not just a religious part, or a little part you want him to.  Is Christ in control of your life?  Do you pray about major things?  Do you pray about minor things?  Do you pray?
    The verses prior say to be joyful, thankful, and pray continually.  Where do you and Jesus stand today? Hand in hand or back to back?  Love you all.
    In Christ's Love and Grace
