We have begun building these houses of worship on the solid rock, the firm foundation. Let us be vigilant about making sure that we remain there with both feet firmly planted in the Lord. Let us ask God to allow us to discern when anything or anyone else tries to take that place, and let us ask for the faithfulness to remain in him.
Words such as commitment, loyalty and accountability can cause some of us to turn and run. Maybe we fear failure and choose not to make a promise we might not be able to keep. When we look at the picture of God presented to us in the bible, we see someone who honors his word, but first He must speak that promise. It works the same with us. If we want to be faithful and trustworthy, we first must be willing to be held accountable through commitment.
Life is full of winding roads, twists and turns, roadblocks and detours. Yet, even though there may be obstacles before us, we can manage the way safely and securely. We only need let the Savior lead us. Let us take a moment to look over our journey and make sure that we have not tried to take the reins from him.
Limited insight and skewed vision through filtered lenses can keep us from seeing the world the way it really is. They also can keep us from seeing ourselves the way we really are. In order to grow and change, let us have the courage and sincerity to ask God to reveal to us what really lies inside.
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, many of us will take time to remember the things for which we are thankful. Let us go one step further and ask God to show us what thankfulness really is and how we can have grateful hearts in all circumstances.
