Notion to Devotion

                                                      Mark 1:17
                                              "Come ye after Me"

          When you feel the  "Notion"  (realize)  that your old self is changing,  "Devote"  yourself toward that change.  That change you feel is God working in your heart. But like most of us the old nature in you will start the blocking of divine will.  One of the greatest hindrances in coming to Jesus is the excuse of temperament. We make our temperament (mental and physical characteristics) barriers to coming to Jesus.  The first thing we realize when we come to Jesus is that He pays no attention whatever to our natural self or our faults.
         The  "Notion"  that God has place in you is that of  consecrate;  However you can't consecrate what is not yours.  There is only one thing you can consecrate to God, and that is your right to yourself (Romans 12:1).  If you will give God your right to yourself, He will make a holy experiment out of you.  God's experiments always succeed.   When experiments have passed all the required test, they become a final product. You can be God's finish product and have the  "Spirit of God"  "A well of Living water springing up that will give  "Eternal Life"  through the blood of Jesus Christ.  Have you changed that  "Notion"  of Jesus Christ"  to  "Devotion to Jesus Christ."

                        Have You Come To Jesus?       Will You Come Now?

                                         May God Bless You
                                          And Your Families
