Follow Your Leader

Good Morning, What A Wonderful Wednesday!! I once thought that the way to holiness was achieved through rigid observance of rules and regulations,...but we can not legislate morality and goodness. Purity and goodness come from the inner self. You can and will allow them to be a part of you,...are not.

Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.Galatians 6:7 (NIV)

You may feel life lived according to the Spirit is too subjective to be trustworthy. Paul answers this with the; " we reap what we sow " theory. If the seed we sow is self-gratifying pleasure, we harvest destruction. If the seed we sow is faith in Jesus Christ and submission to the Holy Spirit, we reap eternal life.
A life lived in submission to the Holy Spirit is going to be a purer, nobler, kinder, gentler, more generous life than that lived according to a set of rules and regulations.

In the Holy Spirit the soul finds a Leader for life; a Decider in difficult times; a Comforter in sorrow; a Helmsman who steers one safely into the harbor.

" It doesn't matter who pays us,...we work for God."
