The Person Who Fears God Seeks To

Contentment Is One Of The Most Distinguishing Traits Of The Godly Person, Because A Godly Person Has His Heart Focused On God Rather Than On Possessions Or Position Or Power.

God's Guidance Is Almost Always Step-by-step; He Does Not Show Us Our Life's Plan All At Once. Sometimes Our Anxiousness To Know The Will Of God Comes From A Desire To Peer Over God's Shoulder To See What His Plan Is. What We Need To Do Is Learn To Trust Him To Guide Us.

Sometimes The End God Has In Mind Is To Exercise Our Faith, So He Brings Us Into Straitened Circumstances So That We Might Look Up To Him And See His Deliverance.

Some Days We May Be More Acutely Conscious Of Our Sinfulness And Hence More Aware Of Our Need Of His Grace, But There Is Never A Day When We Can Stand Before Him On Our Own Two Feet Of Performance, When We Are Worthy Enough To Deserve His Blessing.

God's Unfailing Love For Us Is An Objective Fact Affirmed Over And Over In The Scriptures. It Is True Whether We Believe It Or Not. Our Doubts Do Not Destroy God's Love, Nor Does Our Faith Create It. It Originates In The Very Nature Of God, Who Is Love, And It Flows To Us Through Our Union With His Beloved Son.
