okay...i admit this HUGE problem here with weight loss and general lazieness in reading and applying the Word of Life to MY own life
what??? am i deluding myself? i am surely saved, sealed by the Holy Spirit sometime in the winter of my 15th year, after a disasterous relationship ended with aborting my first child...i cried out in desperation and Christ shone down His love on me, a wretched wreck of a rebel. Unfortunately, that rebel still surfaces from time to time, surely not as strong as she was then, but never the less tossing me into periods of wading through much muck and mire, struggling to obey the Word, and general chaos. I become a "hearer" of the Word, not a "doer". The "me" that Christ is refining starts to get rusty again and i need to walk through the refining fires once more to be purged of sins that so easily beset me.
so once again, i started The Lord's Table study, which is online and free. They have numerous other studies also for smoking, drugs, pornography addictions, etc...the last time i did the 60 day course, i got to about day 27
be incredibly blessed today! |
i desperatly do NOT want to be a "hearer" and not a "doer" (James 1:22, "But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.")
I want to finish the course this time through...i want to walk in the victory that Christ supplied for me. I want to be a "DOER" of His word and not just hear it...i want to stop deluding myself that all is peachy keen, and i can get by my day with a quick "okay Lord, help me out today" in the morning. I surrender myself completely, once again, to the Lord Jesus, to search my heart and cleanse it...and to create a clean heart once again (Ps 51:10, "Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me.") To make me steadfast in my walk with Him. Praising Jesus that i CAN lay my heart in His hands without fearsComments
