We must make a choice every day how we are going to live our day. We must choose to speak positive words. We must choose to think with a sinless mind. We choose our actions, words, and thoughts every day and yet how many of us truly take God into consideration? I read the statement that God should be first in our lives and everything else must work around Him. And we must live our lives dedicated to giving Him glory in all we do and all we say and even in all we think. All we think you wonder? Yes, for God is very interested in our thought life and if no one else knows what you are thinking, He does. He knows our motives and our intent. He will know if we are doing something for gain or if it is a true act of selflessness. I know someone that is caring for an older person who does not have much family and I think..are they truly there helping in a genuine sense or are they hoping in the end there is a financial gain for them. One never knows but God will always know our heart. The bible tells us in Matthew 5:8 "blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." So next time you are thinking no one is looking or listening, remember the one and true God is. So for every day you live ... choose love. Choose compassion and selflessness. Choose to not sin. Choose peace and joy. And above all else choose to live for Him and choose to give glory in all ways to Him. For we can not do this on our own, but only by the grace of God.
Ephesians 2:8
