Obedience in and of itself could be sin! You might think "How can that be?" Well, doing what I know is right with a begrudgingly attitude and kicking and complaining all the way is not Obedience, is it? We might be doing what is asked of us but not carrying out the command in a loving way. Something tells me sin is involved here. What do you think?
I often think about being obedient because I am obligated! No love there, either!
When Jesus came, He came out of obedience to the Father and when He died He died out of LOVE, not obligation. How quickly can I learn the Holy definitions of Obedience! May we all continue in the obedience Jesus taught us through his life walk with the Father!
The next time I am called to obedience, I will ponder the life of Jesus, test my attitude, and check my love thermometer! Will you do the same?
Dianne passed away on April 3, 2014. See the Daily Log link below for details. She had been a Healing Evangelist ever since her healing from Crohn's Disease in 1991. "I knew that the Lord was going to use Dick and myself in a mighty way. To be healed of an incurable, life threatening disease, I knew deep within me that I would see people cured of cancer and the like." For more information, see the Ministry link under Pages below.
