SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND BY MARSHA BURNS:
Order and continuity in your life set the stage for peace and tranquility. You cannot do anything about areas where you have no authority, but you can do something about where you live and who you are. It will become a reality when you walk in the Spirit of the Lord and allow Him to be a dominant force in your life.
John 14:25-27 These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

It’s put in place by the master of deception, the father of lies, the devil. Sometimes sin feels good, smells good, tastes good but all sin leads to destruction. Here’s the solution, take one step back, over and the right path is there. Stay on the right path and true happiness will be discovered.
Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate because the wide gate and broad path is the way that leads to destruction—nearly everyone chooses that crowded road! The narrow gate and the difficult way leads to eternal life—so few even find it!” Robin Robinson Bohlin
November 18, 2023. In what condition is your heart? I search the earth for those whose heart is pure before Me. I desire your heart of obedience to Me more than I desire your sacrifice. In the world are those who try to gain My approval with works of sacrifice instead of a relationship of love. In My Kingdom, I desire relationship of love from the heart, which will produce obedience to My Word. Allow love to be your motivation.
1 Samuel 15:22 “Samuel said, ‘Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice and to heed than the fat of rams.” Jonas Bohlin
