The Law Fulfilled

Didn't he say, "i came here to fulfill the law" (paraphrased). I
understand now. The law was never made for me to be able to follow it.
It was made to show me how futile it is to try to obey the law. The
law shows me how much i can't live without my Brother much less my
Father.

Of course of course

Once as i was riding in the woods, on my way to the East, i saw a boy
sleeping with his mouth open, and an apple hanging from a tree, ready
to fall on his mouth. Foolishness! i thought.

He wants you to WANT it. Don't just hold out your hand and sleep and
expect him to just ride by and drop the apple in your hand. Go out
there, find him, and GRAB that apple! If you were in his shoes you'd
feel the same.

At The Right Place

In my perilous adventures, i've noticed... that sometimes when i wake
up and start the day, i have to put my Master back in his rightful
place above. And to put myself in my rightful place below. Before i do
this, my mind is not in the right mindset. When i set things at their
right places, i find i can believe more.

An Old New Concept

The concept of loving God with all your heart and all your mind and
all your soul. It ain't new to me. Hmmm... but only now do i have to
sit down and really meditate on it. What's it like? i sure haven't
done it before. But it is the greatest commandment. Dare i disobey
the greatest commandment? But why don't i feel it??? Oh thank God
for Philippians 2:13.

shameless plug: if you go to www.gospelcom.net on the navbar on the
right, you can search for bible verses by typing either the verse,
chapter, or even a phrase you remember from the verse. It can display
it in any veresion of the bible.
