Truthful Tuesday, 8 July Pt. II

Truthful Tuesday: We all have "issues" and "stuff." If God disqualified or even viewed folks like man does under the guise of "discernment" (which is really undercover control to keep folks down), there'd be slim pickings. God says that He continues the good work in us and will carry it on to completion until the day Jesus comes (Philippians 1:6).

David was a unfaithful and an adulterer, but God said David was a man after HIS heart. Paul was a murderer and wrote a great portion of the NT.

Don't get it twisted- we don't use these as a license to keep sinning sin or to continually operate in known sin. Nor does this excuse us from proper accountability and fellowship. We use their examples and motivation to move FORWARD in our lives.

Thank God for His grace!

Truthful Tuesday, 8 July Version

Truthful Tuesday: Be mindful of distractions even in causes that may seem right. I was about to take a course of action this week....and I heard the Lord say, "Is that why I sent you there?" Instantly, I got up and halted the action. While it seemed right to me, God was showing me that it was wrong and off track for His purpose in my life.

Scripture tells us that...."Before every person lies a road that seems to be right, but at the end of that road death and destruction wait." - Proverbs 16:25

Let God order your steps and allow Him to make your path straight and on target. Be blessed in and on purpose!
