Authority
Hi all, it's a beautiful fall day here. Cool and crisp but not too cold and sun shining on the turning leaves, life is good!
Are we doing things with God's authority or just willy nilly our way. God gives us authority to do certain things in life. Such as He allows us to share being saved with others but we aren't authorized to save them only He can do that. When we do things He has authorized us to do we usually do a much better job than if we take something on ourselves because we "know" He is watching us. Being human we usually tend to take the short cut or do a half hearted job unless we know God is watching closely and asked us to do this project. So just look at everything we do as authorized by God so we will give it our all not just a half job!
God bless!

I have to admit that I tend to jump into the deep end without my swimmies, thinking I can fix things and do things on my own, without consulting the Lord, or seeking His will in a situation. This has led to some inpleasant learning experiences for me.
I need to seek the Lord before acting on my impulse to fix things.
Hugs,
Trish

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.
