Throw Yourself In

A.W. Tozer | Trust Without Borders


James 4;10  ''Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.''


              We often try to hide our flaws from the world because we don't want to appear weak or less than in other's eyes.  God has not only seen it and heard it from all of your being, but knows where you're headed to.
              Surrendering to God's will in one's life is to live with a Christ centered purpose.  As in James 4;7, when we submit to God then we can resist the devil.
              You will be hard pressed to find a friend that knows and accepts all your flaws, bad moods, and ugliness here on earth, but God is our friend that does just that.  God accepts me 'just as I am' with an understanding love that surpasses all.  There is 'no one, no not one that is good' so humble yourself  before the grace of God knowing that no amount of good works will satisfy like a surrendered heart and soul.

Wag It

Are you a barker or a wagger? A 5-minute devotion from Hungry for God: Bark Less, Wag More



                        Our dog, Jack, rarely barks but frequently wags his tail.  Like most of us, he has a pretty good life but I'm sure he has a few things he'd like to change.
                       Do you talk more about your blessings or your burdens?  We must see our lives through a godly perspective, not a worldly perspective.  The world will make you feel short changed because there will always be more to be had.  A godly perspective humbles us and provides for God's will to be done in our lives, more so than our own will.
                      We would all do well to have more of a grateful heart, than a critical heart.  It is not always easy, but finding content in all circumstances is a goal worth aiming for.
