The Daily Blueprint for 9/20/10 Joy to the Heart
Psalm 19:8
The precepts of the LORD are right,
giving joy to the heart!
God desires for us to serve HIM with all we have - He requires obediance - HE wants us to know we are loved by HIM no matter what - obeying HIM brings HIM joy! While I know we are saved by Grace through Faith - but sadly many use that as an excuse to do whatever they want to do when they want to do it - there is freedom in CHRIST but it's not a life that you can live any way you please- the world is looking at us - and what does the world see? Our lives are no longer our own when we give them over to JESUS! When we allow HIM to live in our lives and live through us - we bring GOD the FATHER joy! God did not save us so that we could just hang out and live like the world around us - HE saved us to use us as an example for others to see what it means to follow JESUS - our salvation is not just for us - but for those around us - you want to bring joy to God's heart? Listen to HIM and obey what HE says - the world around us should not be the molding force in our lives - it should be GOD! Our lives may be the only Bible someone sees in their lives - we may be the only one GOD has given the responabilty to to lead someone to HIM! Not that we should live in high pressure about the lost but we should live lives that have them in focus - we want to show them what it means to follow CHRIST!~ The world is looking for authantic believers in CHRIST! Last night I saw a movie called The Second Chance - if you get a chance to rent this movie - please do - it's about what today's verse is talking about - living your life for something greater then yourself - living your life with God's kingdom in focus - this is your one shot at this life - how are you going to spend your time - making youself happy or GOD?
WORD TO THE WISE:
This life is brief - we don't have much time - what are you going to do with the time you have left?
