The Corinthian Creed - Crosswalk the Devotional - April 22

PLUS...10 Things You Should Never Say to Your Wife [Crosswalk.com Logo]( Crosswalk: The Devotional [Devotionals]( [Newsletters]( [e-Cards]( The Corinthian Creed by Shawn McEvoy Be on your guard, stand firm in [faith]( be men of courage, be strong; do everything in love. - [1 Corinthians 16:13-14]( Today's verse hangs on a board on the wall of my son.

And it wasn’t this letter or the above verse that pushed him into it. No, this letter I was writing simply to tell him how blessed I was to have begun dating a woman (who eventually became my wife) for whom faith came first, and I was giving God all the glory and credit and all that good stuff, and probably telling him how God delights in blessing those who trust in Him. With the letter I enclosed a quick-and-dirty page of graphic art involving the aforementioned verse from Corinthians in some fancy font, with a clip-art picture of a sailboat, kind of as a visual aid to my letter, indicating, I suppose, what it was like for the man of God to live in this world under the Captaincy of Christ.
