Saturday, July 5, 2014 "My Independence Day"

But this command I gave them: ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. And walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’ Jeremiah 7:23

When we step out in faith, amazing things will happen. When the Lord speaks to your heart, simply listen and obey for His way is perfect.  There is no greater path you or I could ever take on our own that could ever outdo His way for us. So why on earth would we want to deny His command and do it on our own? “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you? Luke 6:46 The Lord spoke to me four years ago today to trust Him and walk away from all the things I held on to that I thought made me feel secure. I was scared and felt very alone but I stayed close to Him and He led me into a new and wondrous life. Far different than what I ever knew. So for me, although the calendar calls the 4th Independence Day , July 5th will forever be my day of independence.
