We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Obeying [a parent] is doing exactly what [a child] is told, right away, with a good attitude.
John Younts

As a young Christian I had the idea that all I had to do to live a holy life was to find out from the Bible what God wanted me to do and go do it. Christians with maturity will smile at this naïve assumption, but I see younger Christians starting off with the same air of self-confidence. We have to learn that we are dependent upon the enabling power of the Holy Spirit to attain any degree of holiness. Then, as we look to Him, we will see Him working in us – revealing our sin, creating a desire for holiness, and giving us the strength to respond to Him in obedience.

    Deliver me, O Lord, from mine enemies: I flee unto
    Thee to hide me.

    Hide not Thy face from me in the day when I am in
    trouble.

    The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of
    hell gat hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow;

    Then called I upon the name of the Lord; O Lord, I be-
    seech Thee, deliver my soul.
