Whether you or I like it or not, we influence others by what we do and say.
Along with the instructions and guidance of the Bible, God will speak to our hearts for a specific calling.
John had a personal encounter with Jesus. We can too, that is just as powerful.
There is a trumpet call that I am waiting for.
We want to live by God’s standards, but we also want to be accepted by those around us.
As we live our lives filled with love, we will be a pleasing aroma to God.
The key is you must want Him to lead your life.
Our Good Shepherd will always protect us from dangers and will lead us down the path of righteousness.
Our mandate is to pass God’s message on to each generation.
When we continually sin again and again we will come to the place where we will stop going to the Lord for forgiveness.
Even when we think something is insignificant, if it goes against God’s Word, then it isn’t.
No matter what we’re doing, what we are thinking, or who we hanging out with, He’s there.
What would you like to see God do in your life? Yea, He can do that and more!

We all have our own lens through which we look. They are assumptions, reactions,
and judgments that influence how we see the world and its people.

It’s amazing how much we can trust the Lord…
especially when we are put in the position where we have to totally depend on Him.
