Commit Thy Works unto the Lord.
Prov.16:3. Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. John 15:10. If ye keep my commandments ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in His love. 11. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12. This is my commandment. That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 16. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, He may give it you. Scripture teaches, Christ teaches and emphasizes the need for us to have our life aligned in the Lord and to work His works. There is great promise of happiness and peace in this commitment. When our very thoughts are upon the Lord and His way, we have a peace and clarity beyond measure. This is not a commitment of duty but of Love. To aid in the love of the Father and Christ is riches beyond measure. Our way will be established and made clear. This is a case of not our choice but rather the Lord has chosen us even before time began that we should walk in those things He has ordained for us. And by His grace and mercy we are able to follow Him. What a rich blessing is ours to seek and follow that path of light and life in our life. May we draw closer each day and rejoice in such truths as are ours to enjoy. God bless you and yours this day and we continue to put on the Lord Jesus Christ. Love in Christ. Brother Mike
