“The
Simplicity Of The Greater Life”
John 14:27
We must remember that God
makes no mistakes, nothing slips upon Him; He is never taken by surprise. The
ability to blame God for our problems lies in all of us. We must search and
encourage ourselves to run inventory of our lives, because the trouble is
brought on by our frail decisions to not trust Him. We must depend totally on
God; when we do we’ll find living the Christian life is easier than imagined.
Our problem most of the time is overriding the Holy Ghost and doing it our
way. Obedience to God always brings
peace and satisfaction; this is unnatural to the flesh; the flesh says, hey!
What about me? Don’t forget me, I’m important too! But peace will not come as
long as the flesh and carnality have rule. We must be submissive to the Holy
Spirits’ guidance; we must tarry and then proceed with caution, keeping
ourselves under the simplicity of subjection.
My decisions usually bring chaos and is born out of
frustration, but the Holy Spirit gently speaks in simplicity and wakes me up to
obedience. When I obey God, nothing blocks the avenues of refreshing and my
delight is watching Him make a way when it seems impossible.
“He Knows”
The life I live belongs to God, His guidance
I claim each day. I put it all into His hands, because He surely knows the way.
