Good morning! How are we faithing? A lot of things going on around us in this country and in the world. Many many influences and distractions designed to take our eyes off Jesus. We can get so involved in every thing but what matters. Sports, hobbies, the yard, vacations, the hot rod, the bike and on it goes. By no means are we saying we shouldn't enjoy or have distractions to relax with but has that distraction become the main thing you live and breath for? Would you rather golf or race or go to Fenway than help spread the Word? That is problematic. We need to have those distractions if for no other reason than to expand our thinking and keep us from stressing out but the distraction after it has done it's job should be put up so we can get back to our mission. I don't have all the answers and the balancing act is not always easy but I do know the Word does contain all we need for life. What ever your vocation, whatever your interests, whatever your desires, be sure to check them to the principles contained in the Word. We're not picking on anything in particular but trying to remind you where all this is from and where all this is going because in the final outcome when we are lying in the coffin it won't much matter whether you shot a 60 or a 90 but how you lived in between. Just give it some thought...
Rom 12:2
And be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what is the good and pleasing and perfect will of God.
Eph 4:22-24
For you have put off the old man, as regards the former behavior, having been corrupted according to the deceitful lusts, and to be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and to put on the new man, which according to God was created in righteousness and true holiness.
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for our manual for living. Help us see what you are teaching and not get wrapped up in "how" so much we forget "why". Lord we love and worship you and want to see with your eyes, love with your heart and live according to your example. We lift up those who are searching for you and don't know it yet. Holy Spirit indwell us so much we hear your prompting quickly and accurately. Help us understand issues and not be fooled by the enemies ploys. Thank you for your love in Jesus name, amen
