Thinking of signs and greater things

C.S. Lewis said we are far to easily pleased. How much are we willing to accept what is of the world? Meanness, weakness, lust, depravity, what is called love puffed up and prideful to affect the true heart of God manifested in his children.

We are called sons and daughters of God. Sons and Daughters of the inheritance to the Kingdom. Princes and Princesses. What divides us from the refuse that is the world? Love and righteousness. Love is from God and those who are of the Lord know love and have love. Righteousness comes from Christ alone, his righteousness is lent to us based on our faith in him and our choice to make him the lord of our actions and our desires. So we are the righteousness of God IN Y'shua HaMashiach (Christ Jesus), who is IN us through the indwelling of Ruach HaKodesh (holy spirit).

Where does the desire for righteousness come from? From the leading of the Ruach HaKodesh. The Word says that the desires of men's hearts are evil, and that through faith in the Lord we have escaped the world and it's measures. So what now is the measure of a man in Christ? Christ is the measure of all things, and in him we have sufficiency in all things. The Lord promises us ALL things pertaining to life and Godliness. What then do we lack? Though we must depend on the Lord for our providence, it is our choice to desire righteousness, and the Lord says that through that desire (hunger and thirst) we will be filled.

My prayer for today is that I as a man of God would be filled with the Holy Spirit, led by his direction, and affirmed in His righteousness and love for his other children. Only my Father can teach me and enable me to love his own in his way. It's true you always hurt the ones you love, but what is not said in that statement is that love hopes and endures all things; grace covers over a multitude of sins. Though i am as Paul said "the chief of sinners", i have the Spirit of the Living God indwelt in me, and through that grace and mercy, i am free and able to please Him through faith that it is his to will and to work all things through Y'shua who is my strength
