2 Peter 3:11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
Today's Thought: When you commit your life to Christ, you allow God to shape your life.
There is one thing in which I am dead earnest and that is the Communist
cause. It is my life, my business, my religion, my hobby, my sweetheart, my
wife and mistress, my bread and meat. I work at it in the daytime and dream
of it at night. Its hold on me grows, not lessens as time goes on. Therefore
I cannot carry on a friendship, a love affair, or even a conversation without
relating to this force which both drives and guides my life. I evaluate people,
books, ideas and actions according to how they effect the Communist cause
and by their attitude toward it.
This is what a communist man wrote to her girlfriend. This is the kind of commitment demanded of us Christians. We must be dead earnest in giving our all to Christ. The commitment that we have define the life we will have.
When we remain in Christ we wi be able to know His will in our life. It is not about the consequences of our commitment, it is about how Christ is molding the way He intends to do in our life.
