The demands of the flesh not only feel real, they are real.
That is the reason God's Word is so clear about obedience. We are never left in the dark about what is right. Never.
There are times when it feels like we have to know now. It looks like we have to know now. Someone else is putting on the press sure to finish up now. All of these influences come to bear upon the soul and the result is a feeling of emergency.
God has never had an emergency.
My tiny little perspective must be taken to prayer and by faith, given up to the One who holds the stars in place.
The flesh has a serious addiction that can never be assuaged. I am only free when I stand before Him and declare the truth;
That He alone is sovereign.
That He designed the matter.
That He has assured me over and over that He has already attended to it.
Because of Love.
