Another Hallelujah

I find myself time and time again straying from my Sustainer. I find myself time and time again putting aside the Jealous Lover of my Soul. I find myself time and time again believing the enemy's lies. And I find myself time and time falling back in love with my Father.

There is a Presence ever before me and He leads me here and He leads me there. He removes all things I put before Him. His Love is perfect and His discipline is fair. He is Trustworthy and Faithful...even when I am not. He never lets me go...even when I fight. He sustains me...even when I fall.

Some people over-intellectualize God and think they've figured Him out. Some people study the Word and think they are a scholar. Some people try to follow rules and think they are innocent. But some people never come to realize that all God wants is submission. Now in our society, submission is a weakness. Women fight to be in charge of their homes and even the church. Men fight among themselves over the laws of the church who is right or wrong. Submission is a sign of strength and maturity. When men and women submit to God, they find exactly what they have been looking for...Joy. (And, for all of those that require rewards for duties, you will find the vast richness of God's blessings.)
