S: “And we can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.” 1 John 2:3-6 NLT
“Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you.” 1 John 2:15 NLT
O: Obeying Gods command means living for him no matter what. God prepared me to relinquish by first surrendering to his will. Stepping down from youth was the beginning of a new chapter, speaking. God continually reminded me that I needed to speak. Every time I choose to mute myself by isolation I disobey Gods call. Christ is the true example of surrendering your all to God. I love God and show that love I must relinquish and follow the attitude of Christ. What Christ understood was this was not his home. His father was in him and he clinged to every breath of God. For Gods breath is like honey. All Keaua wanted was always provided because he didn't love the things of this world but the creator of the world.
A: As long as I live for the approval of man. As long as I allow others opinion of themselves our their opinion of me to control my life, I don't have the love of God in me. My confidence comes from daily coming to God. The more I come to him and cling to his breath. The more of his love I have within me and the less doubt and fear I would have in pursuing who I am in him.
P: Lord Jesus, you are God! There is none like you. You truly lived the sacrificial life and had a heart of compassion. I long to be even a piece of you. Show me your way in every decision I make. I want to obey your commands over loving the things of this world. Give me wisdom as I discern which way to go. You are wonderful!!!! I praise you oh God for never giving up on me. In your holy name oh Christ Jesus, amen.
