Come Home

Written by Joyce C. Lock


Continued from page 1

If we only have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. Truth sets you free. Stand up to Satan with it. Seek to know truth in your every thought. Does it line up with God's love for you? Seek God's direction in each moment of your day, wherein it is impossible to fail Him. Don't put it off any longer. Your life depends upon it. Steps of faith give us Victory!

Through much tribulation we enterrepparttar Kingdom of God (letting Him sit uponrepparttar 126905 throne of our heart). For those who don't choose it, it just isn't bad enough yet ... bad enough to place all those wounds where they rightfully belong (on Satan's door step) ... bad enough to quit telling God what He believes and get our every next answer from Him ... bad enough to desire praises from God instead of men ... bad enough to say, "Here am I, send me."

Perhaps only then can God be a proud parent, again, (not perfect children, but children having perfect hearts) - children who look into their Father's eyes with complete faith and adoration.

God raisesrepparttar 126906 weak to confoundrepparttar 126907 wise. He wants to love us in ways we never dreamed. Isn't it about time we let Him?

God First

It would go a long way toward keeping Satan within tight reigns were we to:

1.) spend quality time with God, even if we have to schedule an appointment. seek God's will, even aboverepparttar feelings of others.

2.) learn to discern and detach a little from those who manipulate our time with no real intention of following God (while keeping an open door forrepparttar 126904 time when they don't just want attention, but a real help.)

3.) let go of responsibilities God didn't call us to; works that please man but not Him.

Only when God is 1st does everything else fall into place.
