What Were You Thinking?

My Utmost For His Highest
 
‘When we do something out of a sense of duty, it is easy to explain the reasons for our actions to others. But when we do something out of obedience to the Lord, there can be no other explanation-just obedience. That is why a saint can be so easily ridiculed and misunderstood.’ CHAMBERS
 
A reasoning mind can be a bane to obedience.  When God speaks we must decide if we are going to obey.  We are brought to a crisis … logic has no place in responding to God’s direction except to know that He is always right and we must trust Him and not ourselves. (Prov 3:5,6) As you encounter life, you must place your confidence in God.  When you act by faith, logic .. pragmatism … what is reasonable .. conventional .. even understandable will fail you … Gods ways are not our (man’s) ways .. nor our His thoughts, our thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8-9).
 
Responding in faith requires that we be living by faith  …. focused on God .. all the time … Christian .. that is the life you have been called to .. saved to … don’t miss it by letting the affairs of this world be the priority in your life.
