What Did the Lord Say?

Let me take a moment of your time to ask a very important question.
 
Did we do what the Lord told us to do?
 
Many times, we do what He said,
- with our own interpretation
- our unique personalized version, 
- putting our spin on it,
- rewriting His instructions to meet our style, our needs, our desires
 
When things do not turn out well,
We become disillusioned and blame and question God.
 
But, if we are Open, Honest and Transparent,
We have to ask: 
Did I do exactly What He said,
How He said to do it,
When He said to do it, and,
With the Right motive and attitude
 
So, How do we obey the Lord?
 
By doing Exactly what he said,
Step by Step
Decision by Decision
Choice by Choice
 
Then, and Only then, will the outcome be assured.
 
What is the Outcome?
Romans 8:28 confidently proclaims:
 
"And we know that All things work together for good to them that love God, 
To them who are the called according to His Purpose."
​
Notice
... To them that love God,
Jesus said, if you love Me, keep My commandments.
Notice
... To them who are the called according to His Purpose, 
Those who daily strive to conform to God's Will in Thought, Action and Purpose.

--Be Blessed!
