Obedience or Independence?

11/2/2015

"If you love Me, keep My commandments" (John 14:15)

Today during my quiet time I was reading Oswald Chambers.  This struck me...
"The Lord does not give me rules, but HE makes His standard very clear.  If my relationship to Him is that of love, I will do what He says without hesitation.  (I always seems to hesitate)  If I hesitate, it is because I love someone I have placed in competition with Him, namely, myself.  Jesus Christ will not force me to obey Him, but I must.  And as soon as I obey Him, I fulfill my spiritual destiny.  My personal life may be crowded with small, petty happenings, altogether insignificant .  But if I obey Jesus Christ in the seemingly random circumstances of life, they become pinholes through which I see the face of God.  I will discover that through my obedience thousands were blessed.  When God's redemption brings a human soul to the point of obedience, it always produces (GOD produces - not me!!!!)  If I obey Jesus Christ, the redemption of God will flow through me to the lives of other, because behind the deed of obedience is the reality of Almighty God!"

    I am a wife, a mom, a sister, a daughter, a mother-in-love and a Grandma.  There is nothing more important to me than daily communion with my Lord and Savior.  My family means everything to me!  But without the Grace of God.....I am nothing!
