I seek My Father for wisdom


Scripture: I John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
This promise from God's word does not give us a license to sin, but an assurance that if we do sin, God will always be faithful to forgive us.
His love and grace will prevail in every situation if we will humbly confess and freely admit to Him that we have sinned.
Often, however, to keep from admitting our sins, we label them as faults or group them together and ask God to forgive us of all of our wrongs.
It's really hard for us to admit that we have sinned and to call our sins out, naming them one by one.
Yet, this is the way to true repentance and cleansing, for when we confess our sins, the blood of Jesus washes away every trace of unrighteousness.God desires that we look at our thoughts and actions and then measure them against His word and His standard.
There are no little sins or big sins. He looks at the intents and motives of our heart, for our heart attitude is just as important as our actions.
Matthew 5:28 teaches us this principle as Jesus said that one who entertains lust and evil desires in his heart is the same as the one who commits the sin.
All sin, outward and inward, must be confessed if we want to be able to experience God's will and purpose in our lives.
I must admit there are times like now whether I have sinned against my family or confused at times what God will’s for me to do.
Many of us have family members who have drained us financially or emotionally.
We then make decisions not to Engage in their behaviors any longer, to obtain our own Peace and Joy in our lives.
But then a big decision comes along, and they become desperate in need of your help. What do you do?
As I sift among my own current emotions, I ask for pray about this situation.
I seek My Father for wisdom and ask Do I open that door again?
I Prayed to Him the mighty one before and heard him say not to Engage close the door.
However now in my most confusing Giving heart, I ask to hear from Him Now!
So Please Pray For Me.

May He Bless You and Keep You Today!

With Great Love
IN HIS SERVICE
