This morning I read the following verse which is the final one in the book of Judges: “In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as he saw fit.” If ever there is a receipe for disaster then that is it!

I got an email devotional this afternoon from The High Calling entitled Stunted Shrubs or Towering Trees? which contained the following quote:

When I live for myself, my goals, and my glory, when I rely on my own moral judgments rather than God’s revelation, I stop growing as a Christian. Yet when I trust more consistently in the Lord, when I entrust my life to Him, when I seek Him and His ways above all else…….. My growth is strong and steady, and I can see the fruit of God’s Spirit growing in my life.

It’s obvious which of the two is the best way to live. May God help us daily to choose the right way.
