WHAT IS MY MOTIVATION
Check Engine Light – Part 1

1 John 2:15 - Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. [16] For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.
