Meditations on ""

Life is all about choices and we all need to plan how we will handle opposition to the principles we have set for our life

The way to having more than enough for all our needs is to trust God’s word and act on it.

God cautions us to deal with whatever the underlying root of our irritation is, so we can avoid creating more painful issues to deal with.

God knows we are unable to find the way of peace on our own, so He accompanies us and guides us to it.

Thinking right will have a major impact on our emotions and on our general well-being.

God’s purpose in creating humans in His likeness was that they would live in loving relationship with Him and with each other.

We need the continued care and guidance of God to learn how to come alongside people and work co-operatively towards common goals.

When we feel anxious, we need to stay close to the Shepherd and let Him gently gather us up in His arms.

When we say we are entirely ready to have God remove our defects of character we need to be sure that we are not making room for some to stay.

It’s time to give up the tunnel vision of first looking to our own interests and, only when it is convenient, looking to the interests of others. Most important, it is time to give our energy and attention to God’s interests, because we will then experience the blessing of right relationship with Him and with others.

We have a Power greater than ourselves working in us to help us avoid making the mistakes our old nature is demanding.

Accountability means we have agreed to certain rules of conduct and are making every effort to live by these rules.
