Well, it has definitely been a while since I have last made a post... it is incredible how time marches on! A day quickly becomes a week, a week quickly becomes a month and so on. I see a convicting parallel between time and our relationship with God. If we neglect Him for a day, that can quickly become a week, and that week can quickly become a month, and sooner or later we will be three to four steps backward and giving in to all kinds of sin and foolishness.
"How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word. With my whole heart I seek you; let me not wander from your commandments! I have stored up your word in my heart that I might not sin against you." - Psalm 119:9-11
How can we stay pure in our thoughts and actions? By guarding our minds by the Word of God. How can we keep from sinning? By storing God's Word in our hearts and minds. How can we seek Him wholeheartedly? By keeping His commandments. I love the simplicity of this passage! God's Word is so central to our lives as children of God. May we be a generation that seeks to guard our minds and keep from sin by knowing, studying, meditating and memorizing your Word!
