Living A Life For God

Living a life for God isn't just about reading the Bible, and praying everyday, or even knowing right from wrong.
 But it is that, and so much more.

It's asking Him in to our hearts and lives to abide in us and with us.
It is loving Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and body.
It's having Him in our thoughts all the time.
Being completely consumed by Him, and in Him.
Living a life that revolves around Him, and His will.

It's having a personal relationship with God.
Yearning to no Him more.
Seeking after His wisdom, truth, and righteousness.
Desiring His will in everything we do and think.
Praising, honouring, and glorifying God in every thing we do, and in every area of our lives.

It's about giving our life to God, to be used by Him and for Him.
Putting off the flesh and fleshly desires.
Reaching out to others.
Living a life that is pleasing to God in every way and everything.
Fulfilling the great commission of spreading His Word to others.

It's about putting our treasures in Heaven.
Using our time and talents wisely for God, and God alone!
It's about trading in our desires for His desires.
Dieing to our will and living for His will.
It's about being hearers and doers of His word.

It's about loving our neighbors as ourselves.
Keeping His commandments.
It's putting others first and our selves last.
Training our children in the way they should go.
It's about knowing that when our life on earth is no more, that we will have a wonderful home waiting for us in Heaven.
It's not what you know, but what you do with what you know

Yep, this is what living a life for God is all about!
 In Him,
Mae
