James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
Well this is one of those scriptures that is easy to just leave alone, but what is the alterative should I just back away from the desire that has me in this place of perusing my heavenly Fathers approval and attention? I am sure many of us have asked this question more than once. What is your will for my life oh Lord? Should I start a small group for the spotted Lambs? No the word says be you Holy for I am Holy. Today I was thinking about what I could do to get a word of approval from God, I know go to the bible right, but sometimes that is not enough for I believe that the creator of the universe can do anything he wants so I will ; James 4:7-8 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you. 8) Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you, cleanse your hands, your sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded. ("just say ouch"!) We have all suffered from the diagnoses of Doublemindedness, or maybe thats just me.
Beloved I love the words of Jesus Those who are in Christ are a New creation, old things pass away BEHOLD all things become new. Come to me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Seek and you shall Find GOD'S will.
