Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!
This morning I woke up at around 3am and couldn't get back to sleep. :-(  I'm running to Rochester to work today from 11:00am until 4:00pm...
I have a slight headache...I am hoping my medicine will help...

What we think affect our lives in a positive or negative way...
I am what I am...I am no surprise to God...I continue to accept myself right where I am...
Peace with God
Peace with myself
Preace with my fellowman

I am so thankful for all I can do...

Who Is Your Master?
By Charles Stanley
Read | James 4:7-10

No man or woman is absolutely free. Romans 6:16 says we are slaves of whomever we obey—slaves either of sin or of obedience to the Lord. Because every human is born with a fallen nature, being the master of our own life is the same as being enslaved to sin.

Our heavenly Father’s prescription for this unhealthy situation is submission to Him. But we often think to ourselves, If I give the Lord control, then I lose it—and that’s scary. God could lead me somewhere I don’t want to go.

When fear seeps into your heart, stop and consider the Lord’s character and motives. He is holy and sinless; He has infinite wisdom, perfect knowledge, and an eternal perspective; He loves you and has the power to work all things for your good (Gen. 50:20). Now compare your credentials to His. Who do you think would make a better master of your life?

If the Lord is to have full authority, all rival rulers must be dethroned. The Holy Spirit will not fill believers who tolerate sin in their lives. The grace of God covers the guilt of our transgressions, but it cannot be used to excuse continued disobedience (Rom. 6:1-2). We grieve the Spirit when we say yes to sin and stifle Him when we say no to God (Eph. 4:30; 1 Thess. 5:19).

Don’t let yourself be discouraged by the magnitude of this call to submission. None of us can attain sinless perfection on earth, but each time we take a step of obedience, sin’s hold on us will lessen. Press on—you’ll soon begin to live in the freedom of enslavement to the most amazing Master you've ever known.

Looking forward to another great day...
