I am reading a fabulous book that my best friend gave me for my birthday: "Escape to God," by Jim Hohnberger. In my reading last night, I came across this:
"It is when the world sees us being saved in the present rather than just saved from the past that our lives will demonstrate that we have the power of God rather than just a form of godliness."
Wow! That is exactly how I want to live my life! Sometimes, when I am living like that, focused on God and what He is guiding me to do in any given situation, it all seems so right. But when I rely on myself to make my decisions, I tend to blow it. It is like the cartoon I keep on my wall in my office: "Dear Lord, So far today I am doing really good. I haven't yelled, haven't lost my temper, haven't sworn, and I haven't even eaten any chocolate. But I will be getting out of bed soon, and then I think I am really gonna need your help!"
I hope you are having a great day. Remember to stay plugged in to the source of your strength, and listen to his leading...he will take you far beyond your wildest imaginings!
