Are You Trying To Live Your Life In A Way That Pleases God or Are You Just Relying On His Forgiveness and Mercy? Even Though God Is Merciful, We Should Still Be Trying To Walk In Obedience ...

How are you living?   How are you walking out each day in your life?   Are you living your life in a way where you are relying on the forgiveness, mercy, and grace of God or are you trying to live in obedience to His Word.   Yes, God is merciful and God is kind and no, we are not perfect but we should be trying to walk in obedience to the Word that we know.   

None of us are perfect and we are all prone to making mistakes.   That is why God have given us mercy for each new day.   He already knows the areas in our lives where we will fall short.   But we should be striving each day to live our lives in a way that is pleasing to the Father.   We shouldn't just do what "we" want to when we know the things we want are not pleasing to God.   It should be our desire to walk in obedience and to live our lives in a way that magnifies Him in the earth. 

It's time out for allowing sin to just rule and reign.   It's time to subdue the flesh and walk by the Spirit.   It's time to let God be seen.   It's time to love Him and to allow the reflection of His love to be seen through us.   It matters how we live.   If we are not reflecting who God is in the earth, how will others know about His love, His goodness, His grace, and His mercy.    


SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 
   2 John 6
King James Version (KJV)
And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
