The Path...

My dancing years
taught me
How to work hard
Towards perfection

My nursing years taught me how
To subject myself
to discipline
yet to love and to care...

Marriage taught me
To accept and love
My husband and children
as God's own choice
For my life

My writing days
Taught me
How to pour out
My heart
And my life
to God

Jimmy's death taught me
To walk alone
With God
And pray

That I may spend my
Twilight years
Serving God
And serving
His church

So now
I can begin to say
I want nothing
For myself
And everything
For God

I am reading Watchman Nee's book "The Glory of His Life "
He says that Righteousness is God's way of working..God uses the cross to save us. The cross is the price which God pays for us,uses it to repay His Law so that He can justly save us..we  were born to  PAY BACK to God
what satan  did  in the Garden of eden.
We must PAY BACK to God what statan did when he destroyed the world  in Genesis chapter 1 verse 2.
Why did God then have to RECREATE the world ??
He created  us so that we could be BORN AGAIN by His Spirit..born to OVERCOME satan and his evil
angels..
The only Man  who could do this was the Messiah Jesus Christ,who poured out His life for us,that we may come to know Him who is the only Way,the only Truth and the only Way...
We can choose which way we follow- We can choose the easy way in huge churches  but  we miss the strait and narrow way of the cross.
  - we need to be a part of the Body which is the church,yes... and we need to seek the
INFILLING of the Spirit of God... so we  can  learn to   GO THROUGH
,the hurts and the upsets of life and learn to walk in the Spirit, so we can seek the Scriptures  for our very own ,so we can
 " work out  our OWN salvation in fear and trembling "
Becuase NOBODY  else can be YOU with the same problems YOU or I have !
