ConsequencesWritten by Joyce C. Lock
Continued from page 1
There are consequences for running out into street! And, parent is way beyond distraught even before accident occurs, because they have a glimpse into future. Imagine how God must, sometimes, feel watching His children run wrong direction. When consequences come and we didn't heed God's warning, God didn’t do it to us. Think about it. If our parents wouldn’t smack us with a moving vehicle because we didn’t obey, if you wouldn’t run over your child as punishment for not listening … we were made in image of God and He loves us so much more. The truth is, when consequences come, there is no one else to blame. We would have done it to ourselves. © by Joyce C.

Continued from page 1
There's an easy way to not make same mistake twice. Don't make promises you may not be able to keep. We can say, "If Lord be willing …" But, that's about all we can honestly agree to, knowing that none of us knows what tomorrow may bring. It could be that what God is calling us to, today, may not be same tomorrow. All any of us can rightly do is what God is calling us to, until He calls us to move on. Only once we've heard from God can we be 'A Man of HIS Word'. And to walk with Him, we must first be available. For that ye ought to say, If Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
