The he problem with that is, the dwelling place of our souls... the the houses of our hearts. Were built to be lived in. And, an empty house will be lived in. The Only question is Who will take up residents in the house of our hearts? The thief who will bring all the baggage and the sword of destruction? Or, the true builder? The Lord God almighty. the prince of peace, Abba Daddy.... JESUS. Who will bring the his law. of Love. And the fruits of the spirit love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
