Thurs. thoughts
Do you fear the Lord? Not in an I'm terrified of Him way, but do you give Him the respect He desires of us. Not because we are intimidated by Him but because of our love for Him. Think of what all He has done for us, He gave His son for our salvation. I am constantly in awe of what God has done for me because He loves me. Little ol' , unworthy, sinner, me! He came after me who so doesn't desereve it. This is what non Christians doen't understand, why we "want" to do our best to follow God's directions. It's not because we are afraid of getting struck with the proverbial lightening bolt but that we love Him and want to do what He wants us to do. So I challenge you all to take some time tonight and think about what an AWESOME God we serve. God bless, Karen
Jesus said, "If you love me, keep my commands." That verse struck me one day. For a long time, I paid lip service to God. I did not live by the power of the Holy Spirit, but instead, lived by the flesh. My family suffered, and I was miserable.
Things are different now. I seek to live in obedience to the Lord, and when being obedient becomes challenging, I acknowledge that I need the Lord's help.

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.
