Learning God's will for my life is a slow, on-going process. In the beginning of my walk, God made it clear, that I was to be a pastor. Since I was young, uneducated but eager and fearless I said "yes"to the call. The path was before me and God was by my side. Soon I learned that being a pastor required you to live by faith, trust God, do without many of life's pleasures and invest most of your time into others. This lifestyle was not matching my ambition or my nature. Forty eight years later and I am still working out the kinks. I'm not complaining, sorry or trying to gain sympathy, just letting you know that I am still a work in progress.
S.O.A.P.
1-22-2015 Romans 5:12
S. 12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered
into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that
all have sinned:
O. Sin is common to all.
A. The war of sin rages in every life. We are
born under sin because of Adam. We can be victorious over sin because of Jesus.
The war will be won or lost depending on which of these two men we follow. I
chose Jesus.
P. Father; teach me how to live a life
pleasing to you. Show me the path of righteousness and strengthen me that I could
overcome my flesh. Amen.
