“This morning I just think that for us all we just have to work it out with Jesus..Amen..for I think that we daily have to work it out with Him..Praise the Lord..because its easy to fall into a place murmuring and complaining and maybe even just a smidge of talking about people..Amen..even if what we say is truth it still shouldn’t be said..Amen..for we talk and say things and act ways that somehow totally takes away our witness for the Lord..because we must be careful not to just act any ole way..Amen..for I do know that its easy to fall into that place especially if we are around others that are doing the same things..Amen..because iron the bible says sharpens iron..so a man and his friend will sharpen his countenance..Proverbs 27:17-20..Amen..because I do know my mommy used to say Mandi you are who you hang with..Amen..and that is the truth..Amen..for we must protect ourselves..for not everyone has to be in our lives..Amen..but you know when I say work it out with Jesus we work it out with Him daily..and all the day long..for you know the Lord speaks to us and corrects us in the moments of us doing things and saying things that we shouldn’t be saying or doing..Amen..and in those moments is where we must step up and obey and listen..Amen..for it is in them moments that we change and grow..and we don’t always get it right..but we should a least be doing our best..to treat others the way we want to be treated..to not be a judgmental person by passing judgement where we have no business..Amen!”

“Because that is easy to do..sit around and talk about others..an act in ways that are not at all right..Amen..but when we work out with Jesus..we work it out all the way..Amen..not just pretend to be a nice person..or a kind person..but to really be that person..on the inside..that it all flows rightly together..in unison..Praise the Lord..because even if we don’t speak certain things..and we still are saying them on the inside..than we still need to be changed..and to be better..Amen..for somehow changing us and who we are is always a work in progress..because we live in this world..and we are bombarded with society and media and others and the company that we keep..so we are to daily pick up our crosses and follow the Lord..Luke 9:23..we are told to robe ourselves in Gods righteousness..Job 29:14..we are to walk worthy of the call of Christ that is on our lives..Ephesians 4:1..Amen..we are not to let sweet and bitter water come forth from the same place..James 3:11..Amen..we can’t be hot and cold..up and down..straddling the fence line in life so to speak..because if we are this way then as well there is probably and bit of pride and arrogance there..in other words we are gonna do what we wanna do..regardless if even the Lord is correcting us..and in that place that is not a great place to be at..because if we can’t even obey the Lord in our lives..we will never obey anyone else..and you know the bible says that God resists the proud but He gives grace to the humble..James 4:6..Amen!”

“So I know that we don’t always make that 100 percent in life..because we do live in a fallen world and as well we are not perfect..but as well I pray we don’t use that as a crutch in our lives..Amen..because the word says that as much that lies within us that we are to be perfect as our Father in heaven is perfect..Matthew 5:48..Praise the Lord..so just know that we ourselves help ourselves and help them ones around us when we choose obedience..Amen..for obedience is better than sacrifice..for the Lord has already sacrificed it ‘ALL’ for you and I..the only thing He is looking for from us is our obedience to Him and His call that He has placed on our lives..growing up in Him..not making excuse after excuse for our actions..Amen..but rather taking responsibility for our choices and them things that we do in our lives..other than blaming someone else constantly..because that is just not so..we have freewill..and we ourselves choose what we say and what we do and how we respond in our lives..in our homes..and in our workplaces..so I do pray that each of us just keep working it out with Jesus in our lives..praying continually and changing and growing into everything that God our Father is desiring from us to be for Him and His glory..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
