What's Different About You? Looking At Your Yesterday....What Will You Do Differently Today?

So what's different about you?   What is different about your yesterday versus your today?   What were you doing  10 years ago compared to what you are doing today?   Are you better?   Is your lifestyle better?   Are you closer to God?   Are you settled?   Are you rooted?   Or are you still shifting?    Shifting in your thoughts and in your actions?

Shift means  "slight changes" in your position, direction, or tendency.   It means to move or cause to move from one place to another.   Are you shifting?  

Shifting is not necessarily bad.   The real question is what are shifting from.    Are shifting from the world.....it's ways....actions.....attitudes........to a place in God.    Or are you shifting from God....His ways....His thoughts....His actions.......back to the world.    What's pulling you?   Pull means to be moved from a fixed position.

We have to become stable.   Stable in what we believe and in what we do.   We have to get an attitude and have the fortitude to not be moved.   To not allow people, places, or things to cause us to come out of our place of safety in God.   You have to understand that proximity determines the type of shelter one can provide.   When  you are close to God....you can enter into what Psalms 91 says......He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High can abide under the shadow of the Almighty.   But you can only be in the shadow of someone if you are close to them.   

Life is a series of choices and you have to decide today.....how do you want your tomorrow to be different from your today.   You have to decide what type of protection you want.   You have to decide if you want to move with God and become fixed in His will .... purpose .... and plan or if you want to stay in your Sodom and Gomorrah.    The place where your flesh rules and determines not only your actions....but your tomorrow.
