Good is from God
Scripture: 3 John 1:11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
Observation: I want and try to do what is good. I find myself however in times of wandering, thinking what is evil. Knowing I belong to God helps prevent me from doing the evil things I think at times. I want to do more than imitate what is good, I want that to be my only desire to be and do good. I want good to be my nature not my choice.
Application: To study more of the Bible to know this man God calls me to be. To shun immediately any evil, judgmental or lustful thoughts and focus on God. To spend the rest of this life becoming the man God calls me to be.
Prayer: Dear Lord I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Strengthen me Lord to be good and righteous in Your eyes.
