| The greatest weakness of the Christian who would be a Servant is, discipline.
Why is this such an issue? Because the flesh screams to be goal oriented and
to choose the next rung of accomplishment over the tender and precious time
spent with Him.
Soldier, are you alive to the flesh and the world, or are you dead? This is not
a complex question - it is a simple issue of your choice.
How can you please the Lord in this matter?
By talking to Him. Outloud. Tell Him what you want.
We have the stunning privilege of choice.
The rest of the universe has no choice. The planets have no choice. Animals
have no choice. The rest of the heavens have no choice, and the far reaches of
the universe have no choice.
But you, you have choice. Total choice.
The lost have no choice.
Choose to go after Him. It is what He has asked. It is what thrills Him.
He will never, never, never let you down.
