 Things to follow

In the book of Thessalonians we read,

“Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else. 

Be joyful always;  

pray continually;  

give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 

Do not put out the Spirit's fire;  

do not treat prophecies with contempt.  

Test everything. Hold on to the good.  

Avoid every kind of evil. 

May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." 1Thessalonians5:15-23.

Here we are given words to live by. Admittedly at times it can be hard to do so. But with God’s help we can do it. The key I believe is in all things be willing to go to God directly.

The psalmist telling us,

"I lift up my eyes to the hills— 

where does my help come from? 

My help comes from the LORD, 

the Maker of heaven and earth." 

                                            Psalm 121:1,2.

Are you doing your best to put into action what is written here in 1Thessalonians?

Is God the Maker of heaven and earth your helper?

Please think about it.
