But Who enabled me to make better choices? <BR/><BR/>Yes, in our humanity we often take credit for that which we cannot. It is when we take such credit that we are left tossed like the waves of the ocean, for we cannot serve both God and ourselves.<BR/><BR/>Very well written.<BR/><BR/>btw - Why does God allow us the freedom to choose even when the choice is evil? How can He be God and allow that? I believe that it is because God is God that He can give us the freedom to choose and then allow us to do so, even when we violate innocence. I cannot always let my children play out their own consequences, but God can.Amehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14358641966141610513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12075278.post-1145918733902064462006-04-24T15:45:00.000-07:002006-04-24T15:45:00.000-07:00Gosh!

I would have loved to comment at least on the "Church" one. :) <BR/>Youare so right in that it is so much easier to move forward when we link arms with our brothers and sisters...and almost impossible alone. Christianity is not meant for a solitary experience...the very word "Church" implies "many" does it not?<BR/><BR/>As for this post, you said<BR/>"We know from scripture, from the testimony of our hearts, that God is in control." Something not to be reckoned lightly, "the testimony of our own hearts". Chirst living inside of us always speaks the Truth.<BR/>God Bless, brother...and Happy Birthday! :) in case i don't get back over here by Thursday. :)Jada's Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788954125336097153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12075278.post-1145886792861537862006-04-24T06:53:00.000-07:002006-04-24T06:53:00.000-07:00No, my birthday is Thursday (April 27th).

But the subject of humility is much deeper than you and I think! You quoted Phil 2.5-8; yes, that passage holds the key. God is, by nature, humble; He is the 'Lamb of God'. Humility is intrinsic to divinity. If the cross does not humble us in a deep and shattering way, we cannot experience Christ!<BR/><BR/>I request you to visit my Christian spiritual blogs at http://procyon4x.blogspot.com and http://procyon5x.blogspot.com You will like them as Vicki, Paul, Pia, did!<BR/><BR/>In His grace,<BR/>Procyonprolixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12760248970167753725noreply@blogger.com
