WHAT WILL YOU DO?
Today's reading: 1 Peter 1-3

"...They stumble because they do not listen to God's word or obey it..." 1 Peter 2:8 NLT

If I attend worship service today just for the music or just to be seen--I'll stumble through the week.

If I stand before a group of women and present a lesson on worshiping God with our lives in an order to be thought of as a great orator--I'm going to stumble and fall.

If I present the lesson about Samuel choosing David over all his brothers as king to the littles in our church just to fulfill a responsibility--I'll stumble through the whole thing and in turn possibly lend to the stumbling of these little ones.

But if I go intending to hear God's Word...

To allow it to soak in to my heart and mind...

To let it change me...

To obey what it tells me to do...

I'll be doing what He's asked. I'll be showing God by my obedience just how much I love Him.
