We are so concerned with what others are doing, when we have concerns of our own.

If Jesus formed a line here on earth, the closer you got to Jesus in that line, the more you would be concerned about yourself, and not others.

Stop examining others, but concern yourself with yourself.

Matthew 7:3 (KJV) – and why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

II Corinthians 13:5 (KJV) – examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

All work and no play, is not what God intended.

Enjoy the fruit of your labor!

It’s God’s gift to you!

Ecclesiastes 3:13 (KJV) – and also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.

There are so many that believe once they receive whatever they’re craving, they will be happy and have peace.

Once you get it, you want something else, or something more.

So where is your peace?

There’s a peace that surpasses the peace of this world.

John 14:27 (KJV) – peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Why is it, we want what we ask for, but don’t want everything that comes with it?

If you don’t want what comes with whatever your asking, don’t ask for it.

Be careful for what you ask for. You just might get it.

Matthew 7:8 (KJV) – for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Philippians 4:6 (KJV) – be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

God gave us one direction to move in, and that’s forward.

So why do you choose to go backwards?

Your decisions.

Philippians 3:13 (KJV) – brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.

God has given you power and the authority to use it.

He has given you a switch. If you don’t turn it on, you can’t access what’s already available to you.

The power belongs to God, but if you don’t flip the switch on to what He has made available to you, you can’t activate what He has already given you.

The power is you, flip the switch!

Ephesians 3:20 (KJV) – now unto him that is able to do exceeding abdundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.

Each day, we prepare ourselves according to the temperature, inside or out.

Why don’t you prepare yourself each day from satan?

Ephesians 6:11 (KJV) – put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

When someone tries to munipulate us, we resist them.

So why do you keep giving in to temptation, and letting satan have his way with you?

If you resist him, he will leave you.

James 4:7 (KJV) – submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

We say things we don’t mean to. Speaking without thinking.

Ask God to watch your mouth.

Psalm 141:3 (KJV) – set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.

There are those that actually hate people for what they have done to them or someone they love. Yet they say, they love God.

Love one another, because God is love.

You can, you just choose not to.

I John 4:20 (KJV) – if a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? And this commandment have we from him. That he who loveth God love his brother also.

I John 4: 11 (KJV) – beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
