O Foolish Galatians

1. O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, to whom Jesus Christ before was described in your sight, and among you crucified?  Galatians 3  source

In the stillness these words scrolled: Who has bewitched you o foolish One that you think because you toil to put food on the table for your family that somehow relieves you of your duty and privilege to pore over the Scriptures and pray? Who has bewitched you o foolish One that you think this 21st century with all its trappings and  technology has replaced humanity’s need for the personal touch of GOD and that of one another?

And here I sit before technology. . . may we capture it for His glory and for the good of one another. 

Like!

I begin not knowing the end; I am appreciating the beginning though.

Page 124. She said Peace is the fruit of authority. God’s authority.
Read it.

And now I’m here.
Peace is the fruit of authority. God’s authority. 

Fruit – like a product of something. Like in Galatians the Fruit of the Spirit.  (see Galatians 5:22-23)

Peace is the fruit of authority. God’s authority. 

So when my soul, my very being is at peace that must mean I am acknowledging and obeying the authority of GOD over me. Like, I am not kicking against His ways and will. Right?

So like when my soul is not at peace? When I am all out of sorts, agitated, ticked off, and about to hurt somebody with my words?  Am I at that moment resisting the authority of GOD over me and thus peace has died on the branch?

Happens, doesn’t it? And then there is this: 

1 John 1:9  (KJV) 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. source 

Awash! – full to the point of flowing over – 

Let us be awash today in the love and authority of our Father!

Don’t Give Up

Just a word this morning.

9 So let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we don’t give up.  source

Often giving up would be much easier but just for today you can hold steady.

Salt and Light,
