DISCIPLINE

 Are you a disciple? What is a disciple? Someone that is disciplined. Don't say "OH NO"! Without discipline there will be failure! A disciple of Christ is someone one who first of all has made Jesus the Lord of their life. What does Lord mean? Boss! In the natural world, if your boss says do this or do that (and you want to keep your job) you will follow his directions, provided that his requests are reasonable. We should give our Lord Jesus at least the same respect! He says to spend time in His presence; to abide in Him. We all know that in today's world, we have to TAKE TIME to do that, because there will not be time for Him unless we take it! Take the time. It will pay huge dividends in your life, This requires discipline, but you can do it!

We must thank Him that His Word is true and receive with thanksgiving our needs met even before they appear!

LIVE IN PEACE

 Living in peace is a choice.  It has nothing to do with what goes on around us although we often allow circumstances to steal our peace.  Our peace comes from God and we are to let the peace of God rule our thoughts, our will and our emotions.  When we are upset, angry, or discouraged we will probably not be able to hear what God is saying to us.  If the peace of God rules us, we will be able to make wise decisions in our daily lives.  God’s peace ruling in our lives is directly related to how often we give thanks and praise to Him.  Continual gratitude to our Father, brings great peace in our lives.
