If It Is The Lord’s Will I Will Live

This post deals mainly with:

  • if it is the lord’s will
  • business

My thoughts can get a small high at dark. Mayhap even bass. Mulling over on nigh a half one C of life. Some of it better than I would have conceived of in my spring chicken. Some not.

All in all I am glad that this demonstrate life is not all I have been afforded from the paw of Supreme Being. At dark I be given to enquire what it will be like to be on the former face of death’s doorway.

Concording to the Reverend Gary John Davis “Decease do not have no clemency in this land.” Give thanks God, Saviour makes. Two or three meek shots and an underage bosom attack all over the last 6 months could good have something to do with the mode the watercourse of my knowingness flows.

Not melancholy thoughts. Ideas of a promise and future God has geared up for me beyond the vale of the darkness of death. Makes me want to do right and be appreciative of what He has afforded me on this face of the vale and thus far not to immobilize all my hopes and dreams on home and allies and the things that get life gratifying in the demonstrate.

There is a day of computation and a day of wages coming up that will fit all of us extinct for ageless life. James, the blood brother of Jesus Christ tells it a lot better than I could hope to.

James IV 4:13-15 Weymouth NT

Jam 4:13 Come up, you who tell, “To-day or to-morrow we will go to this or that metropolis, and pass a twelvemonth there and transport on a successful business concern,”

Jam 4:14 when, all the while, you do not even cognise what will come about to-morrow. For what is the nature of your life? Wherefore, it is but a mist, that looks for a short time and then is realized no more.

Jam 4:15 Alternatively of that you ought to tell, “If it is the Lord’s will, we shall live and do this or that.”

I need to acquire humbleness. I indited “we need” first but distinct that was a copper extinct. This is not a public lecture, it’s me sitting down here in a decent affectionate quiet room, well mulling over on the nature of human life.

What is the nature of human life? Nothing significant, whether it’s you, me or Michael Jackson. We live our lives from day to day and at any second our breathing spell could be concluded and our next witting idea would happen earlier the front of almighty God.

This life that appears so concrete to us is no more substantial than a mist or vapour, a fogginess we walk through while header towards God’s light. That makes not mean it is insignificant but it is temporary and unreal likenned to the life waiting beyond the trammels of internalization.

Alternatively of firm scene our faces towards our own plans and purposes, there I go with that “we” concern over again. You have to count on this extinct for yourself, you ca not sit on my disclosure of impermanance.

Anyway, here’s my idea:

I have some things I want to do and fulfil while still in the physical structure, but I need to larn to anneal my desires with the the fact that, “If it is the Lord’s will, I shall live and do this or that.” If it is not His will then I will be travelling on to larger and better things in the front of the Jehovah.

Peace of mind.
