Grace for your spirit February 5, 2009

For bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come. I Tim 4:8

We go see our doctors and allow them to yell at us, so we will be healthy. We go to our physical fitness clubs and weight watcher groups and bear the ridicule because we want to be fit and beautiful. Then we go to church, where the consequences of faithfulness is eternity with God or Satan, and we want everyone to leave us alone. If someone blinks at us in a wrong way, we quit and will never return. Why is it that we welcome the chastening of the health people, and become angry at the chastening of the spiritual overseers? The answer is priorities. When our eternal health equals our desire for physical health, we will welcome the guidance.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
