Today’s Thought “God and Me?” G. Ward

 

Jeremiah 10:23 I know, O Lord, that a man’s way is not in himself, Nor is it in a man who walks to direct his steps.

 

The U.S. Army experienced great recruitment with its television campaign that had many embracing the catchy jingle “Be All That You Can Be!” It transcended belief in oneself beyond linkage to “This Man’s Army” to become subliminal adoption unto many.

Moreover, even when I gained entry to my promptings, routine and normalcy had periodic visitation inviting limitation.

There’s tremendous retreat readily available for any who demand proper motivation (cf. Jn.15:5). Our demand must desire separation from pseudo identifiers and cling to the Only spiritual example lending rest; denying return to chaotic forecasts entirely unreliable.
