Busy…
The mall is crowded…
People moving in every direction…
Filled with people…
People filled with purpose.
Up ahead…
An older couple walking around and around the mall…
“How many steps so far?” asks the woman…
The man checks the step counter on his phone..
Their purpose for today-Exercise…
Up ahead three junior High School girls…
All carrying bags from the same store….
They swing the bags as they walk…
Talking rapidly…
Laughing often…
Their purpose for Today? Fun!
At the mall entrance…
A family pauses….
“Let’s plan where we’re going,” says the mom….
“We’ll meet back here when we’re done.”
A family…
Plotting their purpose for today.
The world makes so many demands on us…
Work…
Family…
Friends…
We must plan…
We must find our purpose for today…
Or we won’t meet the world’s expectations…
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2
And besides…
If we finish all our worldly tasks….
We’ll have time to focus on God…

So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31
The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8

Amazing this love from God offered us, at no work done by us. So easy it is not easy. Can be taken for granted, and not in giving up trying to do what no one else can do as is done once for us all by Son.
Proof in the resurrection, reported to us in the Bible, about the word.
Get that? The word is Jesus the risen Christ for us to have love and hold, in thanksgiving and praise forever all sin is today and forever taken away, but one, that is not a sin at first birth.
Born first with the choice to believe God or not, Everything else God died for in Son for us to get new life given us to walk new in.
Not thinking about it, where sin enters in, by thought(s) Evil darts thrown at us in our minds, to give thought to it. As Eve gave thought to that tree, as the serpent tricked here in thought of it. She ate! then Adam and they saw what God said if they ate, death!
Man has been running and hiding ever since. Not facing yes I have still sinned after belief to his love and mercy. Still can again as I hope not to, but yet have and might again.
That is reality, being in an unredeemed body, Romans 8:23 tells me and Romans 7 tells me about trying not to sin, what one does anyway.
So my only hope I for Father and Son to take over, I am willing for this, seeing I can’t do wha tis done by Son. I need this lead in and through me as in Gal 2:20=21
Thank you for the reminders in humility to stand in that alone under trust of God in his love for all
Thanks again Bob, for spurring me in thought of Faith alone, not in doubt whether I am doing things right or not.
I like Is 7:1-9. the verse 9, where it states if one doubts, then one cannot be golden up.
I kick me out every time I doubt, especially if I sin in error again. As I get told I better repent again to God and remain saved, all prayed up!
Well if that be the case, I am not leaving the confessional, I would hate to leave it after getting prayed up, be on my way home, and another driver almost hits me, I gat to cussing over this again and die, before I got prayed up again.
Does not make sense does it? God did do what is said that is done, or not?
When it is said he died for all sin, how many are left for us, from Father’s sight through Christ?
None, a few or a lot?
If not all, then Christ’s sacrifice was not good enough and would have to die over and over again, would he not? Like Heifer’s and bulls that were sacrificed year after year in the first Testament
Transition over through the cross over door. Go to the risen Side, leave the death side. after settling that is finished where we all are forgiven to wake up and be led new in risen Son, given us from Father to it, in his word, Jesus the Christ, is the word. The Bible is the messages to us in that truth
When I say the word, I do not mean the Bible anymore. I mean the risen Christ where new life is at for all to turn to Father for it as a gift.
Not one can earn it, for not one is perfect but God himself, and Son for us the only mediator between God and mankind
Letting go, as for whatever reason this body I am in tries to upset me again, that is not me any more as said in Romans 7.
Thanks or anyone else in belief as well
As my eldest Brother said to my eldest Sister before he left earth
God just love me, he finally found that out, after a life full of stress trying to do what is right all the time, he died when I was 21 years old, he was 31. He died on Campus Crusade for Christ. They in Autopsies never found a physical cause for his death. So cause is reported as unknown on his death certificate
That is when I became an unstoppable believer. And finally left Alcohol and Marijuana by age 27. As it took a while to see in agreement with God to quit, because it was not beneficial for me to continue in it.
It was not that I had to quit, it was better for me to just do it, and let go of troubles, not that I have always done that. Just learning with training wheels on my Bicycle.
Now I see this to be thankful in all things to stand in trust to learn truth of over errors of this flesh body that does not behave at all. Yet tricks me in thought of I got it together when I do not, Only God does\\
As you already know this too Brother
Busy does keep one’s mind off of problems. I remember my Mother mowing the lawn, and I thought I should be doing it. Tried to take over and got shut down, when she said to me, I have to keep busy to keep my mind off of certain things.
So I got an understanding
