946.1Trust and obey your new masterCFSCTC::HUSTONSteve HustonSat Jul 02 1994 21:3918
Trust and obey.

Love God and enjoy him.

Love your neighbor as yourself.

-----

I know the phrases... I'm still trying to work out the day-to-day details.
It's tough to put "the old man" down and yield control to Jesus, but that's
a big essence of all of the above - get me out of the way, and yield to
Jesus.

It's a relationship.  I try to develop it as I do other ones - spend time
talking with God, reading his Word - getting to know him, and learning
how he loves and cares for me.

    In Ephesians, we are commanded to be filled with the Spirit.  This 
    is something we have to do daily.  We just had our Vacation Bible
    School and the adults had an interesting evening discussion on walking
    by the Spirit.  
    
    Daily walk: 
    
    1. Abide in him as prescribed by 1st John.  
    2. Maintain fellowship with Christ.  This can included reading God's
       Word, prayer, and fellowship with brothers and sisters of like
       faith.
    3. Confession as prescribed by 1st John 1:8,9.
    4. Repentence which means to do a 180 degree turn from sin.  This can
       be the most difficult.
    5. Help fulfill the Great Commission!
