Back from work! Haha. It is so exhausting. Though physically drained from work, i still have an immense amount of energy left for work! Praise God! His love is new every morning.
Lamentation 3:23 "They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
Today, i tried to keep every area of my life obedient to God and in submission to my managers' authority in my workplace. Satan has come a few times to tempt me to secretly eat the ice cream that is situated at a not so noticeable corner of my workplace. I keep contemplating, "i should eat some, since i won't get caught anyway." The Holy Spirit immediately sounds in my mind, that i should live a life that is fully submissive to my manager's authority. No one will know, but God is watching and he wouldn't be pleased.
Romans 13:5 "Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience"
It is extremely important to constantly check our hearts for any negative thoughts about people. If you nurse your bitterness and believe so strongly that you are still walking right with God, then God will want to speak to you through this verse.
Ephesians 4:31 "Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice."
How can you still walk right with God when you have bitterness? God loathes it, be even more wary of this because....
1st Corithains 10:12 "So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall!"
Live a life pure and blameless before Jesus. Constantly repent to make sure you are still bearing fruits. We need Jesus in our life to bear fruits
John 15:5 "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."
Thats all folks!
