Blessing of faithfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Putting into practice God\u2019s instructions leads to blessings.  Heavenly bliss comes from maintaining a right relationship with the Lord.  Each morning, I confess my sins to my Maker, act to right any wrongs, and then try again to represent Christ well in my life.  Inevitably, in my humanness, I fail, but failure doesn\u2019t stop me from trying again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following Jesus stretches people.  Currently, I\u2019m working on forgiveness issues.  My screen saver on my phone helps me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cForgiveness is the conscious choice to give up your right to make the other person pay because you trust God to make things right.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working on forgiveness helps me maintain a soft heart toward others, keep my mind centered on God, and release me from the bondage of offense. As a result, heavenly bliss replaces a bitter heart, a blessing from above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apply God\u2019s principles to your current circumstances.\u00a0 Experience blessings from above as you give thought to the Lord\u2019s word and discover His goodness.<\/p>\n\n\n

Lord, thank You for giving us Your word to live by.\u00a0 Help us find direction as we seek You.\u00a0 Let us experience heavenly bliss as we pursue right living through Your word.\u00a0 Praise Jesus for allowing us to live life to the fullest.\u00a0 IJNIP.
