Ask yourself this question, What does that mean for me? What would it look like if I were diligently seeking after God? What would I set aside to seek for more of him? What would I turn upside down in my life in order for more of Him? What lengths am I willing to go to in order to find more of God?

What will people say about me when I am gone, how will my children remember the impact their Father has had on their life, will the work that I am doing be remembered at all, will anything that I have said or that I have done have any significant impact on the lives of those that I come in contact with on a regular http://withoutdilution.blogspot.com/2013/03/legacy.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Anonymous)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999687572782522501.post-3469498831968726557Thu, 12 Jan 2012 05:59:00 +00002012-01-11T23:59:39.361-06:00This is something easy to talk about, but not quite so easy to follow through. Unconditional love requires one to step outside of their comfort zone and treat others with a respect and dignity that some may not deserve. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; (1 Corinthians 13:4 NKJV)Love suffers long - showing patience and long http://withoutdilution.blogspot.com/2012/01/unconditional-love.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Anonymous)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6999687572782522501.post-2330616236353821989Thu, 31 Mar 2011 03:36:00 +00002011-03-30T23:30:26.339-05:00 Day 4;Genesis 37:8 - And his brothers said to him, "Shall you indeed reign over us? Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?" So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.Have you ever had a dream, something that you wanted so badly to do, but wasn't quite sure you thought it could ever happen?

How he has tried to plant seeds of doubt and unbelief throughout the day, but the difference maker has been the fact that I have come into this thing really studying the Scriptures and what God has to say about my identity and who I am in Him.

I believe this is something that we all need to do at one time or another, if for no other reason but to be reminded of the basic things that God has commissioned us to do.

It's important that we keep this at the front of our mind, not to be the driving force of our dedication to Christ.

Jesus obeyed God 100% of the time and he led 12 disciples, he mentored them, gave them practical evey day advice, explained to them great spiritual truths, and much much more.
