The Lord Can Only Teach An Inquiring

Counting Blessings Is Better Than Recounting Problems

Have Faith To Keep All The Commandments Of God, Knowing That They Are Given To Bless His Children And Bring Them Joy. [you] Will Encounter People Who Pick Which Commandments They Will Keep And Ignore Others That They Choose To Break. I Call This The Cafeteria Approach To Obedience. This Practice Of Picking And Choosing Will Not Work. It Will Lead To Misery. To Prepare To Meet God, One Keeps All Of His Commandments. It Takes Faith To Obey Them, And Keeping His Commandments Will Strengthen That Faith.

When Priorities Are Proper, The Power To Endure Is Increased. And When Internalized, Those Priorities Will Help Keep You From "going Overboard."

Sadly, Many Individuals Don't Know Where To Find God, And Exclude Him From Their Lives. When Spiritual Needs Arise, They May Look To The Left, The Right, Or Round About. But Looking To Other People On The Same Level Cannot Satisfy Spiritual Shortages. When The Immortal Spirit Is Starved, Hunger Persists For Something More Filling. Even When Material Success Comes, There Is A Hollow Ache - If Living Well Falls Short Of Living Worthily. Inner Peace Cannot Be Found In Affluence Accompanied By Spiritual Privation.

The Full Flower Of Divine Love And Our Greatest Blessings From That Love Are Conditional-predicated Upon Our Obedience To Eternal Law. I Pray That We May Qualify For Those Blessings And Rejoice Forever.
