Just Say No!! We've all heard this phrase, or cliche', so to speak regarding a number of issues that we must deal with from time to time in our daily lives. We always have choices & no temptation has the ability to overcome you except what is common to man. What this means exactly is this: God is faithful; he will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear. (1 Co 10:13)

Take that a step further ask yourself where you are, currently, in your faith, & spiritual walk & convictions. It's important for you, personally, in order to be 'happy, content & secure & at peace' to be in tune & comfortable in your spiritual walk & relationship to God. If you are experiencing unrest, or seeking, searching for 'something'----I guarantee that it is 'GOD' you are seeking---a deeper spiritual connection with God. After all, God is Love. Period.

Society uses the term... 'Just say No'. Yet, spiritually this term applies as well.
In terms of obedience to your godly morals, values & principles----it is right & just to honor your precious priceless relationship to God by choosing to honor your convictions. Obedience to God is determined by your personal relationship to Him. And not about what society deems as obedience, but what your personal relationship to God allows you to be convicted over. You know when "GOD" is speaking to you by virtue of what you will & will not do in the course of your daily life.

Alcohol & drug use & abuse lowers our inhibitions, causing us to be less cognizant of actions, words & deeds. Does this mean that we are never to enjoy a glass of wine? For some of you who are unable to have control, yes! But for those who are able to 'Say NO'...to 'too much' wine, of course not. But it does mean that when we do, enjoy a glass of wine, or indulge in recreational or social behaviors where alcohol is part of the social situation, it is important that we remain obedient to right behaviors that will keep us balanced & 'in check' in how we are behaving.

Are many of us guilty of over indulgence, absolutely! Today it's time to take a deep look about your life & about your personal indulgences in your life that are either making your life 'happy' or 'NOT'!

Today's planetary influences allow us to be better able to assess & evaluate where we are spiritually. We've all behaved in a way that we may regret, that is the nature of 'human beings', & why we want, need & desire forgiveness. And if God can forgive you, then of course you can forgive yourself. After all, you are not greater than GOD, & God forgives us all when we humbly 'ask'. That is his promise to us. 

Although you want to always do & say the right thing. But are you going to always remember to do & say the right thing? No! In a perfect world, yes, but that is unrealistic. You are human, and you will make mistakes, & deal with failure in your life. But it can all be overcome & forgiven, & you don't have to feel as though you've 'fallen' from grace. You are always automatically in God's Grace. He promises us this. By choosing to be alert & cognitive in creating the right choices for yourself & then making the best decisions regarding those choices, you will come to terms with 'righteousness' in realizing that nothing is as precious to God as our obedience to Him.

Obey God & leave the consequences to Him.

Enjoy your day, & week ahead.

Blessings,
