Are you living your life completely devoted to God?
Surely the truth must be, that whatsoever in our daily life is lawful and right for us to be engaged in, is in itself a part of our obedience to God; a part, that is, of our very religion. Whensoever we hear people complaining of obstructions and hindrances put by the duties of life in the way of devoting themselves to God, we may be sure they are under some false view or other. They do not look upon their daily work as the task God has set them, and as obedience due to Him. We may go farther; and say, not only that the duties of life, be they never so toilsome and distracting, are no obstructions to a life of any degree of inward holiness; but that they are even direct means, when rightly used, to promote our sanctification.
—H. E. Manning
Are you living your life completely devoted to God? Obedient to His will be done? To doing His work, whatever so that may be that He has you doing now? Doing all in holiness for Him! Are you following Jesus? Are you reflecting, forgiving, imitating, and loving like Him? That is what God wants us to do! To obey, to follow the 10 Commandments, to be upright and holy, to serve Him humbly without complaining. We need to follow Jesus, He is our Savior, we are promised life eternal in Heaven when we do, we are called to promote our sanctification. While we are here on this Earth School journey, we are called to love everyone!
