Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.Colossians 3:17
Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 5:19-20
Don't you love it how detailed our directions are for this journey called life? It is amazing how the specifics are stressed time and again so that we don't have any excuses.
Some of us might argue that these are too hard to follow and use that as an excuse to ignore it completely. Then there are those among us who "follow" instructions as if it were a ritual - rolling in and out of bed with a "word of prayer" for example, which has almost become a routine, a task without much thoughts applied.
As much as possible let us follow the Scriptures as it is. It is not too hard that we can't even try. It shouldn't become too easy that we do it superfluously.
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it." Isaiah 30:21
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Matthew 7:13-14
May God help us understand the meaning of His Scriptures and enable us to follow His commandments. God bless you all! Happy Thanksgiving!
