Again today, my devotions (my daily bible reading) were so great. I love it when God directly speaks to me through it. I just copied one of the verses and one of the application steps from it as they are what jumped out the most to me today.
Are you walking in a light of your own creation or in God's light? Am I walking in the true light? I'm doing the best I can. I'm seeking my Jesus with every step I take and every decision I make. I'm trying not to lead, but be led. That's hard for me. I'm naturally a leader more than a follower. Am I perfect? Oh, we all know I'm not. I can't be. But, doing the best I can and keeping my sin account as short as I can possibly make it, is what I'm striving for. It's hard to keep my mouth shut and pray. It's hard for me to let Jesus lead me in even the simple every day life things. I'm consciously trying though and praying through it. I feel like I'm closer to God now than I ever have been.
I Peter 4:11b, "If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen." (NIV)
