" Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established." - Proverbs 16:3
Dear Friends,
Why do we do the things we do? Sometimes we act on impulse. Other times we are being reactive. Sometimes we plan and implement in a quest to be proactive. Then there are the times when we simply do nothing at all. We can find ourselves just thinking about doing something.
Today's verse instructs us to be committed. True commitment is not a cliche or some empty rhetoric. The commitment that last and leaves a legacy is the Christ Commitment. This means yielding our will to His. It is committing our works to Him. This is true prioritizing, giving our work, our dreams, our aspirations to the Lord.
The Bible teaches us:
" Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." - Proverbs 3:5-6
"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ."
- Colossians 3:23-24
"...for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." - II Timothy 1:12b
Commit! Commit! Commit! Totally!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
