GOD IS THE WAY

Obedience - Key to Blessing
For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

Romans 2:13 KJV



It's what we trust in but don't yet see that keeps us going.

2 Cor. 5:8 MSG



Meditation 1/11 - 17: Walk by faith - 2 Cor. 5:2-10 MSG
We live by faith

The Spirit of God whets our appetite by giving us a taste of what's ahead. He puts a little of heaven in our hearts so that we'll never settle for less.

That's why we live with such good cheer. You won't see us drooping our heads or dragging our feet! Cramped conditions here don't get us down. They only remind us of the spacious living conditions ahead. It's what we trust in but don't yet see that keeps us going. Do you suppose a few ruts in the road or rocks in the path are going to stop us? When the time comes, we'll be plenty ready to exchange exile for homecoming.

But neither exile nor homecoming is the main thing. Cheerfully pleasing God is the main thing, and that's what we aim to do, regardless of our conditions. Sooner or later we'll all have to face God, regardless of our conditions. We will appear before Christ and take what's coming to us as a result of our actions, either good or bad.

2 Corinthians 5:5-10
