God Knows The Mess We’re In When

I Think The Perception Of Peace Is What Distracts Most People From Really Having It.

If You Want To Have Sustained Joy, You Have To Not Only Make Sure That You Think Right, But You Also Have To Make Decisions Now That Are Going To Guarantee Some Joy In The Future.

It's Like A Jar Of Salad Dressing Sitting On A Shelf... Most Of The Seasoning Settles To The Bottom Of The Bottle. But When You Shake That Bottle Up, All The Ingredients Mix Together And Then The Dressing Can Add Flavor To A Salad. In The Same Way, We Can Stir Ourselves Up And Regain The Reverence, Respect And Awe We Once Had For The Lord.

I Think We Need To Get Smart Enough To Do What's Going To Help Us And Not Just Continue To Do Things That Are Going To Hurt Us. It's Pretty Easy To Read Something Or Hear About It In A Message, But It's That Personal Application Of That Where It's Just You, God, And Your Problems, That Are Going To Give You The Power To Get Stronger And Stronger.

Most Of Us Have Hoped And Prayed For Something To Happen A Certain Way, But It Didn't. And When This Happened, We Had A Choice To Make: To React With Offense Toward God Or To Trust Him Anyway.
