Motivational quote: "Don't follow any advice, no matter how good, until you feel as deeply in your spirit as you think in your mind that the counsel is wise." David Seabury

Thought #1: This works for me. IF your spirit testifies with His Spirit per Romans 8:16. Otherwise, you're up against Proverbs 14:12.

Thought #2: He seems to be emphasizing that your whole self needs to be in line with the idea. Don't jump on just because you think it's a good idea, but your whole heart needs to be there!

Proverbs 14:4(NLT) ->You want a clean church? How are we going to get one? By it being empty?

Proverbs 14:9(NLT) ->Guilt isn't always bad...

Proverbs 14:15(NLT) ->Or everything you get forwarded in your email!

Proverbs 14:16(NLT) ->Danger is something to avoid, not plow head-on into. Or to recklessly send your children into.

Proverbs 14:35(NLT) ->So should all leaders.

Isaiah 43:2 ->Bad stuff will happen

Isaiah 43:25 ->He forgives for His glory

1 Timothy 4:7 ->leave behind the worldly ideas, the rumor-mongering, the fables and fantasies...do they draw you nearer to God?

Discipline ->work towards building yourself into God's design for your life. It will not be easy, and will require your effort!


Moving toward the Horizon,
Doug
