The
beginning of each day is an opportunity to listen to GOD our Father. The choice
is not always that clear as to who it is in our mind that is speaking. Is it
our conscience or is it a reflection of a prayer. Sometimes the voice we listen to may sound
logical but is it the right choice to make. This quote comes to mind “We cannot
do what GOD does and GOD will not do what we can do for ourselves”. We cannot
save or sanctify ourselves GOD does that. We cannot expect GOD to gives us good
habits or moral character we have to that part ourselves. The initial steps of building good
habits or moral character goes against all our common sense. When the life we
have built so far is based on working hard to achieve a certain goal such as a
having the big house and nice car, we can end up miserable. If our aim to solely
to comfort ourselves, we will never fulfill that goal. The only one who can
fulfill us is the Holy Spirit that is already within us. If we begin the day by
inviting GOD our Father to join us for that day we can begin to feel fulfilled.
Material success is a good thing but it can’t be our only thing. Whose voice do we really need to
listen for?
Remember; If GOD be your partner make your
plans large!
