So many times in life (as life changes) there are scrary times. Times when you can either run away from (or try too) the change or you can face it. When I say "face it" I don't mean alone but with the help of friends (true friends) and the presence of God's Holy Spirit. I can run but I cannot hide!
Scripture: Luke 6:47 (MSG) These words I speak to you are not mere additions to your life, homeowner improvements to your standard of living. They are foundation words, words to build a life on.
Observation: Jesus speaks words that are the foundation for my life--or atleast should be.
Application: I read the Bible, I see the words that are printed there, but sometimes they don't touch me, or maybe I don't want to be touched. It is hard to determine the answer--it is even harder to be honest about it
Jesus speaks words of life that touch every important aspect of life and if I open my heart to them then my heart will be softened so that my life can absorb the words of life.
The result is I will be transformed into the image of God.
Prayer: Lord, I pray that my heart will be softened and that I can be honest with you and myself, so that I might be changed into what you would have me to be. I pray your will is done in my life, so that I may become like you. Thanks for loving me, Stephen
Yieldedness: I will strive to open my tough skin to the words of life.
