We have came up with a more complete to-do obedience list, the few of us (but nowhere near complete, you'd agree). 1) Raise our children to know and love God 2) Live a life reflective of God's gift of salvation: be a walking testimony 3) Spread the good news of eternal life 4) Be a person of integrity 5) Preach only the word of God 6) Love recklessly, expecting nothing in return 7) Give generously to those in need 8) Be quick to listen, slow to anger 9) Do everything everyday as an offering to God: be a living sacrifice 10) Fix your attention to God in all you do 11) Live in harmony and love with one another as the body of Christ 12) Sing hymns and spiritual songs, in worship as one body 13) Teach, minister and counsel one another 14) Persevere and pray 15) Meditate on his word day and night: know it, study it, defend it 16) Readily recognise what he wants from us and go do it The next thing I suppose we ought to do is to mark ourselves on how much we do vs. how much we have
It is good to know yourself and the rhythms of your body.
ReplyDeleteWhile I was at the hairdresser's yesterday evening, getting my hair cut, I was leafing through a women's magazine (there was nothing else there!) I inadvertently read an article about our rhythms of the day - quite interesting but I am not sure how true it is. E.g. the mind is most alert in the late mornings, memorywork is best done in the afternoon, pain management around 2-5pm, etc.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure.
That is weird how that happens.
