Sometimes I Just Sit Still And Enjoy

Everything God Tells Us To Do Is For Our Good. Whether It's Direction You Get In His Word Or Something He's Specifically Put In Your Heart For Your Situation In Life, The Absolute Best Thing You Can Ever Do Is Obey Him Promptly And Completely.

It's So Easy To Settle For Less Than God's Best For Us Because We Don't Always Feel Like Taking Responsibility For Our Behavior Or Putting Forth Some Effort To Do What We Need To Do So We Can Accomplish Great Things For God And Help People. But The Cost Of Settling For Less Is Actually Harder Than Being Completely Obedient To God's Will.

When I Was A Teenager, I Didn't Get To Do A Lot Of The Things That Other Kids My Age Were Doing Because My Dad Was Very Controlling And He Wouldn't Allow Me To Go To School Activities, Like Games And Dances. So I Didn't Have Positive Expectations For My Future Or Really Dream About What I Could Do With My Life. I Was Just Trying To Survive Until I Could Get Out On My Own.

Food Is Not The Problem. It's What We Do With Food That Becomes The Problem. That's Why We Need To Learn To Keep Everything In Our Lives - Especially Our Eating - In Proper Balance.

Satan Frequently Steals The Will Of God From Us Due To Reasoning. The Lord May Direct Us To Do A Certain Thing, But If It Does Not Make Sense - If It Is Not Logical - We May Be Tempted To Disregard It. What God Leads A Person To Do Does Not Always Make Logical Sense To His Mind. His Spirit May Affirm It And His Mind Reject It, Especially If It Would Be Out Of The Ordinary Or Unpleasant Or If It Would Require Personal Sacrifice Or Discomfort.
