Titus 3 reads as a list of what to do to be successful in life.
We can perform all the right things,
but what is The Energy behind that power to do right?
And how well is our performance?
I weep as I read:
"Show Perfect Courtesy Toward All" ~
I don't.
We live in a celebrity society and I am not one.
We live in a youthful society and I am not one.
People in our day are downright rude,
not as much to the young and beautiful and rich.
Just my thoughts...
No big people and little people in this world.
He gives all of us breath.
The bottom line is:
Do I honor him with this life breathed in me?
Do I accept all His Ways for my life?
Dan 5:23 - The God in whose hand is your breath, and whose are all your ways, you have not honored.
The Handwriting is on The Wall: "You have been weighed in the balances and found wanting." ~ Daniel 5:27.
No More!
I live to honor God!
And the overwhelming, awe-inspiring news is:
My guilt over lack of performance from courtesies to character is paid in full.
There is no condemnation for this no-name, older woman.
An endearing God has delivered me from darkness and is
delivering me from myself.
Our enduring God delivers.
He delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.
He will deliver me from the powers up against me this day.
Titus 3:4-7 "But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior."
