Good Morning! Rain, possible snow, cool weather, I do enjoy the fall! This whole week looks to be a cool one too! Today’s devotional from Pastor Rogers is a good one for all of us. Those of us who have struggled with poor physical condition for most of our lives know that dramatic changes in a short period, though we may desire them, just don’t happen. The methods developed to “cheat” such as liposuction and other surgeries can be quite dangerous, though certainly the change can indeed be dramatic. Praise God there is no way to “cheat” on gaining a closer relationship with Jesus. We must go off by ourselves at times to read the Word and seek understanding, join small groups for Bible study to gain additional insights, and attend worship services to glorify God. All of it works together towards our spiritual toning and trimming. Toning in that as we understand some, we will be given more and our spiritual muscles will grow. Trimming in that we will desire to get rid of those things which are not good for us to think upon, view, read, watch, etc. Come to think of it, my media collections could use some trimming, there are DVD’s in my house that don’t need to be here. That would be a good first step this week for me. What might you need to cast a critical eye upon in your life? Let us pray for God’s wisdom in this.
God bless!
