Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked (Galatians 6:7).

I would never mock God.

Openly

But how often do I act as though God did not really exist?  How often do I read his words and then go off and do my own thing, completely forgetting what I just read? How often do I face the world in my pathetic strength, ignoring his voice telling me to trust Him?

Too often

Tell me I’m not alone here.

Beloved, when we do these things, we treat the Lord of the Universe as if he were ours to command, ignore, or cast aside at our discretion. 

Not a good idea

He loves you, but he won’t allow that.  

So, take a moment or two or twelve this morning to remind yourself of just exactly who you are, and whose you are.  Then go live like it.

Happy Tuesday, Beloved.
