I know there will be some who will disagree with me on this issue, but that’s your right and please be respectful as this is what I feel that God has laid on my heart today. I only like to post when I feel that it’s been laid on my heart and this has been laid on my heart. Usually the things that I post are aimed to uplift and encourage, but this is what’s been laid on my heart today. I was reading in Romans chapter 8 last night and verses 4-16 have been on my mind and heart today. These verses also made me think of James 1:8. I also thought about the scripture in 2 Corinthians 6:14. I’m sure we all have struggled with this. Wanting to hang onto God in one hand and our own worldly desires in the other. There are others who are still struggling with it. The truth is that we can’t have both. To desire God’s ways is light and life and to desire our ways about His is the path to darkness death. Light and darkness cannot exist in the same room together. One will dominate the other. We should keep our desires focused on the things of God, not those of the flesh. It’s pretty easy at times to let the worldly desires creepy into our lives if we let our guard down for a minute. This passage has made me examine my own heart. I want my heart to be focused on the things of God and not on the fleshly things. I know at times I come short of what God wants me to be and I want to strive to be what he expects me to be. Daily prayer and devotion is important because they help keep our focus on him. God bless you all!
