PART 3. GOD’S WORD IS ESSENTIAL TO HOLINESS

I grabbed the wrong suitcase.  On a weekend ministry trip, my husband and I with four other students from North Central Bible College ministered in music and preaching at churches in the Midwest. We packed, grabbed suitcases, sound equipment, and headed out.  When we arrived at our room, I opened my suitcase to an unpleasant surprise.  Instead of my items of clothing,  I had grabbed my scrapbook suitcase – pictures, memories, dried flowers, and things from past special events.  Oh, no!  You can imagine my dilemma.  Nothing in that suitcase was essential for looking good on the platform at church.
