Emotional Counterfeits

                                                      II Corinthians 2 : 9                                                   
                                                 "Be obedient in all things"

          One of the greatest acts of obedience is to share Christ with others in the power of the Holy Spirit.  Since He came to seek and to save the lost and has commissioned us to witness for him, nothing could please the savior more.  If you want a valid, vital exciting awareness of Christ in your experience, begin to share Christ with others as a way of life as you walk in the Spirit.
         Avoid man-made emotionalism that is generated by restoring to tricks and manipulations of individuals.  Many such emotional experiences are a counterfeit of the genuine experience which can be yours through obedience to Christ, our Savior.  We live according to God's promise, trusting in the integrity of God Himself.  You see, faith must have an object.  And the object of  our faith as Christians is God and His word.  God has proven Himself to be worthy of our trust.  There are thousands of promises for us contained in God's Word, and no Christian has ever found any one of them to be untrue.  When God says something, you can stake your life on it; you can know that He will not fail you.

 "I thank all of you for your prayers while I was in the Hospital. I ask you to continue to pray for I am still weak in body;  but my heart and mind is still strong in Christ."

                                                 May God Bless You
                                                  And Your Families
