“I wonder why we live our lives on the edge?..I mean we live there kind of doing the right things in our lives..to not doing the right things..Amen..I mean the Lord speaks to us and tells us what He desires from us from that still small voice..but even then we go right on living there on the edge..making agreements with the enemy..other than listening to the Lord..do we do this simply for the reason of knowing that God will forgive us and help us and pull us up from the mess even after we chose to be disobedient..or is it for the fact we know that God is always there for us even when we turn away and walk away and turn a deaf ear?..but even in the midst of all the living on the edge of our lives..I wonder what all we missed out on?..I wonder what all we gave up and what all we lost in the midst of our doing whatever it is that we want to?..Amen!”

“But you know I am reminded of the scripture that says those things that I don’t want to do..those things I do..but the things I know I should be doing I don’t do..Romans 7:15-20..Amen..anyone else been there in their lives?..as to where you know what you need to be doing and yet choose to still do the things that you know you need not be doing?..Amen..because isn’t it a funny at how quickly you can grab ahold of something that once you never would’ve even considered?..I just came this morning to say this..we are told in the word of God that we are to walk in the spirit man for in doing so we will not mind the things of our flesh..Galatians 5:16-26..Amen..I mean how many of us truly think that we can continue on living our lives as we want to and not be affected by it?..and how many of us think that if the Lord was tempted by the evil that we ourselves will not be?..Matthew 4:1-11..because again if we think we won’t be tempted or tried to be driven away from God’s plan or purpose for our lives than we all are truly mistaken..Amen!”

“But if we walk with the Father and we stay about His business and if we truly want to please Him..than we will be obedient..we will choose to listen to His voice when speaking to us..Amen..for we cannot just live sinfully or should I say on the edge of our lives and expect to be in God’s will for our lives..because that is just not so..Amen..we have one life..and as the saying goes and as the saying says..when I get to the end of mine..I do want to hear the Lord say you used up everything I gave to you..Amen..enter in into the joy of the Lord for you have been faithful with little I will make thee ruler over much..Matthew 25:21-23..Amen..for the edge is a place as to where you never know when you will fall right in..Amen..fall into a place that you do not want to be at or ever be at again in your life..so to live well we stay close to the Lord..we listen and we choose to be obedient..and when the enemy comes to tempt us we will know at once that it is that sly ole evil one..bringing no good at all with him..but evil and wicked plans..and it’s in those moments we choose well and we choose correctly..for we know that we know that following the Lord takes daily picking up our crosses and doing His will not ours..so don’t be a risk taker..don’t do just whatever and whenever living on the edge of our seats..but let us live in the light and let us walk in the light and let us follow and listen to the voice of our Jesus..making a difference where we are with what we have knowing this life is all about Him and His will for us and ours..so we follow..we listen and we choose and willfully obey..Amen..for that is my heart and that is my prayer..for each and everyone of us..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
