Thought For Today - 4/18/2011

The evidence of my obedience and dedication to God is the love I have for others.  It doesn't matter who they are.  It is the true, pure, unfailing love of God manifesting itself in one's life that sets them apart from other people.

It was a revelation to me, walking in love and forgiveness toward others.  In doing this I experience such a great and mighty power of God that His Spirit just flows on the inside of me. :)

Today, how about you making the quality decision today to commit yourself to obeying God, walking in love and forgiveness toward all.  From personal experience, if you do, you will never be the same.

Much love,

Joseph

There are days that seem more challenging then others and even to the point of being overwhelming.  Here is the time when you don't feel your way through the challenges, but you stand on what you know which is Faith and patience.  

You must remind yourself that you have been down this path before.  Maybe not the same situation, etc., but you have been down it.  And, when you look back at what happen, you see that God saw you through and His promises were true!

From personal experience you have to press your way through all of the challenges, putting and keeping your eyes on the promises of God that He will get you through this!  As I was telling my oldest son - Jeffrey just the other day, you have to grab hold of a bull-dog faith.  Don't let go!

Much love, 

Joseph

More and more I understand that it is so important for me to know that God knows how to bring me out of trouble.  Really, there is nothing God doesn’t know how to handle.

My major part is to pray and invite God into the situation.  I must trust Him, putting my entire life in His hands!  On the other side, fear and doubt which is the opposite of God will hinder and stop me from receiving God's help.
