Isn't Pride Great-----------No

Everything that Jesus did was the will and the Word of the Father. So everything the Christian does, if he is obedient, should be the will and word of Jesus Christ.

Observation demonstrates that the really great people in God who bless mankind are those who try to live in absolute accordance with the teachings of Jesus. Yet we all fall short------------yet they try.

Every time I write a post about obedience or doing the will of Jesus, I realize how short I am and how far I have to go. I try to live in obedience, but then I get my feelings hurt, or I get mad, or I do some other carnal thing. By writing, it really makes me think of my own inadequacies. I am a work in progress and always will be.

The good news is Jesus paid the price for our transgressions-----past, present, and future. Our sicknesses too. Isn't that something, we are already forgiven for sins we haven't even committed yet? He paid the for our sins at the cross. All we need to do is confess and repent of them; then they are forgotten and forgiven.
