Seek That Which is Good

"FOR ALL FLESH IS AS GRASS, AND ALL THE
GLORY OF MAN AS THE FLOWER OF GRASS.
THE GRASS WITHERETH, AND THE FLOWER
THEREOF FALLETH AWAY:
BUT THE WORD OF THE LORD ENDURETH FOR EVER."
1Peter 1:24,25

Seek That Which is Good

We live in a world of unprecedented change.
In one generation, we have gone from horse travel
to the space shuttle. Technology continues to
accelerate, making more advanced computers, new
medical procedures, and conveniences unthinkable
years ago.

There is nothing wrong with progress. But we must
take care amid the rapid changes occurring today that
we do not drift from our Christian moorings. God and
His Word never vary. They are our secure anchor
during life's tempests.

God tells us through His Word what is right and
what is wrong. And His Word is RIGHT! People and
their ideas flower quickly and fade with time, but
God's Word is permanent, enduring forever.

May we give thanks to God, that in our ever-changing
world, we have His changeless promise of forgiveness
through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

The grass always seems greener on the other side of the fence. Everything looked better on someone else and everyone else seemedd to do it better and I wanted what they had.

Through some of the readings, and circumstances in my life, it has kept coming up about doing something asking for forgiveness and then going back out and doing it again.

I just realized it isn't about someone going back after church and drinking and drugging, beating their wife, cheating, lying, and stealing, it is about me eating chocolate. I am good, but even if I don't buy chocolate, I bought banana cake, I put chocolate icing on it. It may seem a small in in comparison, but it is a big sin to a diabetic, especially when my average went from 5-6 to 6-7 and my last reading was 8.8 which deleted my 6.2 reading in the morning. God and I have more work to do on this.

When I first saw the title, I thought, "Why would you look for the bad when the good is there?" The thought quickly followed, "You are an alcoholic/addict dummy, get off your high horse, it doesn't matter where you are at in today, it is still a fact and it is still waiting for you to open a crack in you mind to let it in and it will take over and you will wonder what happened."
