Scripture: Galatians 3: [3] Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort? <\/p>\n
Observation: It\u2019s amazing how many times God will get me going and once it\u2019s going well I try to take over myself and mess it up. Why is it so hard for me to not make it about me? When people praise me why do I delay before giving the credit to God who made it happen? When I listen God will direct me in what He wants me to do but once I get comfortable instead of allowing the Holy Spirit to work through me I try to take it on myself.<\/p>\n
Application: Apart from God I can do nothing. I need to tattoo that on my eye lids so I don\u2019t forget. I\u2019m a follower of Christ and that is what I should be doing following and obeying what God commands me to do. Whatever I do God\u2019s goodness should shine through me and not around me. I need to humble myself before God and allow His spirit to work through me for His glory, not mine.<\/p>\n
Prayer: Dear Lord I love you and what to do what is honoring to you. Help me be still and work through your servant that I may fulfill the purpose I\u2019m created for. Humbly your servant Mark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
