ROSE AND LINDA'S JOURNAL EXCUSE ME LORD, YOU NEED TO CHANGE WITH THE TIMES

[ OR LISTEN TO THE FLESH TALKING]

Yes the times have changed, we are no longer living in the dark ages.  As much as we respect and reverence You Lord, in this day and age we need to be policality correct.  We have freedom of choice to live our lifes the way we want.  Not only us but everyone has the freedom to do as they wish, to make themselves happy.  You did create us the way we are, didn't You? 

That does sound totally stupid doesn't it?  Or does it?  We claim to know and love God, to follow His teachings, well as long as they line up with what we think is right. 

What should be happening in our lifes, in our walk, with the Lord, is an awareness that we need to line up with Him, not Him with us. 

God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.  He does not change, He does not have it wrong.

We want to pick and choose what we will be obedient to.  It is no different then sitting down with Ten Commandments and saying okay Lord today I will follow 3, 4, 7, 8 and 10.  The rest I do not agree with so I will not follow them. 

This is nothing but our flesh speaking.  Remember the flesh, that part of you that lived in the world and sought something better.  Now being saved, having found the freedom and peace that God gives us by Himself becoming flesh and dying on the cross so that we could have said freedom, NOW we want to play it by our own rules.  Only agreeing with that which we want to agree.

God this wonderful creator, the only creator, who became Jesus Christ to save us, left the Holy Spirit within us to guide us, Yes we want to change Him.  What fools we are.

Oh Lord help us to surrender this flesh,  it ideals and views, to walk in Your Word, according to Your truths, which cannot and will not be changed.  To know Lord that You and only You are Right and Just.  To yield to Your path and not our own desires.  Bring our flesh under subjection, Lord, let us line up with You and only You, the Light of the World, and not the ways of this earth.  In Jesus Name Amen. So Be It.

God Bless
