God's Law

           When life is not going as you want or intended, the easy thing to do is blame it on something or someone else. We are all very good at looking at an outside reason for what is wrong in our life. How did things get the way they are?

It is simple- CHOICE.

           We never desire to think about what could happen or what we allow to happen as the root cause of our life being as it is. In order for life to go in a certain direction, you must have a plan, not a dream.

            God had a a plan when the universe was formed and created. God gave a command based upon the plan that was laid out long before man first foot print was placed upon this earth. Do you think the laws of God have changed?

             Not one bit. No matter what mankind attempts to do, the laws of the universe that God established will never change. Gods commandments are based upon these laws and and are the foundation of all creation. If you wish to create the life you dream about and desire to have, follow the laws and commandments of God's Universe. The first and greatest of these is LOVE. If you can't get that, the others want matter. 

            This means that you have to be humble(not weak), understanding, caring, respectful, honorable, truthful, trusting, loyal, giving, faithful, thoughtful, patience, insightful, fore-sightful, forgiving, creative, high-minded, grounded, free, joyous, helpful, prayerful, healthy, wise, holy, powerful, willing to sacrifice, uplifting, energized, and of course "immeasurably God focused". Think you can't do it? Jesus did it. So can you and I.....

        "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you, I do not speak on my own initiative, but the Father residing in me performs his miraculous deeds.  Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me, but if you do not believe me, believe because of the miraculous deeds themselves.  I tell you the solemn truth, the person who believes in me will perform the miraculous deeds that I am doing, and will perform greater deeds than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it." John 14:10-14.

Which Do You Fear?

Adam was afraid and hide from God because he had sinned. But do we do so when we sin? No! We have become so bold that we do it the light. Some even do it in church and from the Pulpit! Some may do things in the dark, but God sees all, and the dark thinks we do will come to light. Why do we not fear God? We state easily that we love the Lord, but I never hear anyone( Pastor, Evangelist, Pastor or Bishop) say they fear God, and it is stated in scripture more times that I can count. Which do you fear most God, man or death?

I , like everyone else have sinned. I to do not fear God as I should. It hits me to the deepest part of my being that I do not reverence the my Lord God, as I should. I have allowed man and this world to dictate to me whom I should fear.

But I am learning to fear no man, for he can only harm my flesh, but not my spirit. Jesus, died not for this world, but for mankind to inherit the kingdom that can only be obtained by those who live by the spirit that is within. God is spirit. God's Breath that brought Adam to life can only be taken by God, which is the giver and taker of life. So who should you fear God or Man?

Excellent Spirit

Is it or is it not, true that living a holy life is the goal of every man and woman of God? Then don't get in my way (judge me) if I decide to live holy, just because you don't. To many times we allow others to dictate to us as to how we shall live. And I am not saying, that I'm better than anyone else, because we are all flawed. I just prefer to get to HEAVEN, not hell. I'm working on having a "excellent spirit" like Daniel. {Daniel 6:2-25}

Stop letting other dictate to you how you should live your life. If Jesus had listen to Peter, and the other disciples, would he had gone to the cross for your sins? Sometimes we have to live not as man wants us to, but as God wills us to. Stop letting the world and your flesh have control of your life. You live your life according to the laws that God gave to every man and woman of God.

• love
  
• prayer
• loyalty
  
• truth
• forgiveness
• grace
• compassion
• sacrifice
  
• wisdom
  
• faith
• hope
• joy

These and many other attributes are the keys to heaven. I not good at all of them, but I make every effort to do as God wills me. I know that we can have a better life when we put love into what we do. Don't do everything based on man's ideas of what is right. Look to God. Ask yourself sometimes-" How excellent is my spirit?"

Time For Me

This has been a a very strange time for me. I have been at home for the past few weeks due to my job cutting hours. It has given me time to pray, meditate, read and study God's word; and great times with my family. I know that this year will be full of challenges that will be wisdom building experiences. Whatever wisdom I gain, will be shared with you. Spiritual growth and family prosperity is very important to me. However, remember prosperity is not always monetary, it is also quality of life that each of us desires for those we love and care for.

One of the first things I did was review my list. This list is truly two list in one. It is a list I did this summer . It is a list of what I like and what I dislike about my life. It was a very interesting and learning experience. It help me to realize the numerous hurdles that I still have to overcome. It also showed that I still had fears that are keeping me from living a better life.

It showed that I have spent a lot of time doing things that are not productive. In other words I am a "procrastinator". It is not surprising that so many people see me doing more than what I have accomplished. I guess I will never live up to my potential. It is hard when you have always made mistakes and refuse to learn from them. I think a lot of what I have not done. It has given me the thought that I spend to much time thinking about my past and mistakes , and not enough effort on what I can do right.

I feel it is now time to give myself the life that is equal to my potential. I have decide to take some time to change how I think about myself. There is nothing that anyone can do to change me I am the only one that can do it. It is time for me.
