Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can't bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me. I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. John 15:4'5 WEB.... -
Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall never see them again. Yahweh will fight for you, and you shall be still." Yahweh said to Moses, "Why do you cry to me? Spe...

"But the father said to his servants, 'Bring out the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let's ea...

But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh. Jonah 1:3 WEB
It was late one Saturday afternoon when a friend stopped by and invited me to go to church with him the following morning. I had no interest in that. The thought of getting dressed up in a suit and pretending to be someone else on Sunday, did not appeal to me. Besides, I knew some of the people there, and during the week they were often worse than me, even the friend that invited me. He had probably smoked a joint on the way over. Why pretend to be someone that you are not?
I ran from God, evading Him for years, or so I thought. In time, He caught me. One night, while playing music at a party, I met the Lord and suddenly my whole life changed. My friends no longer knew me. Suddenly I wanted to know everything about God, and my old interests, and friends, soon faded away.
It turns out that you don't have to wear special clothes or pretend to be someone else. That is only man made rituals. We call it: 'The Church Face.' You should always be yourself. That is what my friend was doing, the best that he could.
It is not just a Sunday thing, but more of a Monday through Friday thing. God so loved us that He gave His only Son to save us, just as we are. Sure you should live a life that demonstrates faith in God, but you don't start out perfect. You won't even end perfect, but you will get better.
When you fall, get up and take another step. Know that God is seeking a personal relationship with you Monday through Sunday. God is not mad at you, and when you turn to Him, He will immediately accept you.
Prayer: Heavenly Father I thank You for accepting me just as I am. I want to serve You Lord with all my heart. Please continue to draw me to You.

I have found out that God is not interested in being what I call a "Winde God up on Sunday God". If one truly understands what "The Fear of the Lord " is, you will understan this is a seven day a week thing, this walk we are journeing on. It is so time to move from a religous walk to a rightous walk in truth!
I Agree! Amen :-)
