God\u2019s word spells it out and He has given me a conscience to help determine what to do.  I know when I\u2019m about to do something that dishonors God and even though I try to justify it I\u2019m only fooling myself.  Every time I go against what God tells me to do I\u2019m sinning, including the times I don\u2019t do what I\u2019m supposed to be doing.  I\u2019m so far from being righteous, it only through Jesus that I\u2019m secured of an eternal home with Him.<\/p>\n<p>Application: Stop sinning!  Be more like Jesus, get rid of the anger and replace it with love, get rid of the fear and replace it with faith, replace the worry and replace it with trust.  I know how I\u2019m supposed to live this life, God has given great direction, but He has given me a choice on how I will obey.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer: Dear Lord help me be strong, so that I will do what it is you desire of me.  I am such a sinner and a fool to try to be ignorant of your laws.  Help me keep them and live a life that is pleasing to you.
