GreetingsGot this in my email and thought it was worth sharing. A really good reminder that God has been putting on my heart for awhile now to walk out daily in Him as I am always talking about doing.God BlessmjEsau lived by the moment, and by what his flesh wanted. His desire forlarger Issues was too weak and undeveloped to give him the needed strengthto CHANGE. He died in his sin, for lack of cultivating a strong desire forthe Right things, and yielding to his flesh moment by moment.He was a slave to foolish, wasteful, pathetic self-centeredness. He was nota "victim". He arrogantly did what pleased him, with little sacrifice andlittle effort in cultivating a larger vision than his self-absorbed moment.Cultivate Desire for what pleases Jesus, and live for that larger Picture!"WE make it our undying passion to PLEASE HIM.""Without Vision, the people perish, throw off restraint, self-sacrifice."Cultivate DESIRE! Feed your spirit in time at His feet, and the Throne andthe Cross. CULTIVATE your thoughts and vision in intimate "all thingsintertwined" ("Koinonia") with Him and those in whom He lives.And, you shall LIVE, and you shall Grow "from glory to Glory!"Walk your talk.
May we not have the same sad testimony as Esau. That of being 'a slave to foolish, wasteful, pathetic self-centredness.'May our life, our time, our breath, which are all God given, be used for God's glory and honour.God bless.
