Lest any of us get too selfrighteous; GOD Is Always Dragging us to Himself from our own desires and Idols.
Many times even on this forum we are tugged gently back and sometimes jerked and dragged back to our
First Love. Yes some of us had a kind of love for GOD And His Word early but we all learned from whatever
church we or our parents attended. Most of us were willing to defend our brand of hell and damnation to the
death and would no more be here except we were dragged.

Remember that demons also know and believe there is GOD but He is not calling or dragging them now and
they do not have love for the Truth.

Hope not too many feathers are ruffled by this but all of us must always Remember; It IS GOD'S Grace
Through His Faith that brought us and keeps us every step of the way. It IS The GIFT of GOD; Not of our
works, lest any should boast.

We must remember and never forget; there but for The Grace Of GOD go I. (I am dragged many times)

Peace Love and Grace,

george.

I kicked and screamed and cried the whole way. Believing the truth isn't the hard part. Obedience to the truth can be very hard and very painful. My mind said yes, but my emotions said no. I had magical thinking. I wanted to be cozy in this world with relationships, family, home, and comfort. Having my heart circumcised is no picnic. Long suffering is not fun.

I often think of the way Jesus chose his disciples. He said follow me and they got up and left everything and followed.

Luke 18:28-30
 28Peter said to him, "We have left all we had to follow you!"

 29"I tell you the truth," Jesus said to them, "no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God 30will fail to receive many times as much in this age and, in the age to come, eternal life."

Hello, I agree none of us can  boast. I only see where God has taken me. We will have to fight that Beast till death. I agree with George and MG. It is definitely a hard one to fight that man within. I just get all excited when I see God deliver me from one thing at a time. It makes me want to keep fighting. Doing Gods will is all I pray for now for the most part. I know it takes time and some are futher along the way. It will just be so wonderful when the whole world can be together in peace and harmony. It doesn't matter what God uses to get rid of that beast or when he gives us victory.Its all his to boast of. It just amazes me everytime he shows me that the beast within can be tamed by him.

In His Love,
Marlene
