XII. HOW SHOULD I THEN LIVE?

The more difficult the days become
The easier God’s Way becomes
The darker the days become
The easier it is to see that one eternal light
The chaff burns away
The human additions fall away
The absolute remains, standing alone
Beckoning me to “Come and follow” Him
I love the simplicity of the Gospel invitation
No doubts, no debates, simply a call
To “Come and follow”
And I simply do.

Human pride and arrogance are abominations to God.  They stand in direct conflict to the fear of that Lord that I am rooted in and desire to live by.  Because of human pride and arrogance nations will fall, as history has clearly shown.

It is easy to fall into the trap of the two evils, through self righteousness as well as doing evil.  A repentant sinner trumps the ‘more holier than thou’ religious person in God’s kingdom.




God wants me to BE well and DO well.  He provides all I need in able to BE well and DO well.  When I keep that Truth foremost in thinking I will be constantly aware that it is only by the grace of God that I am who I am and do what I do.  That brings the glory to Him and then He smiles down on me and is pleased.  This is all I seek.  This is how I shall then live.
