"Bearing Record!"

 "For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek." (Hebrews 7:17 KJV)

  "Clearly, God's promise to give the whole earth to Abraham and his descendants was based not on this obedience to God's law, but on a right relationship with God that comes from faith. If God's promise is only for those who obey the law, then faith is not necessary and the promise is pointless. For the law always brings punishment on those who try to obey it. (The only way to avoid breaking the law is to have no law to break!) So the promise is received by faith. It is given as a free gift. And we are all certain to receive it, whether or not we live according to the law of Moses, if we have faith like Abraham's. For Abraham is the father of all who believe. That is what the Scriptures mean when God told him, "I have made you the father of many nations." This happened because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life and who creates new things out of nothing." (Romans 4:13-17 NLT)

 Something good to think about, no matter what condition you might currently be dealing with: God is able to do abundantly more than you can imagine! That is what faith is all about, letting God be GOD, and not trying to control your own life. Something we tend to constantly keep forgetting! 

 Maybe it's just me, but there is always something I don't fully give to God, as if it is mine. And even then, if I do give it to God, like gravity, I end up taking it back and thinking that I can handle it on my own. It is kind of like telling God, "I got this now, thanks for your help!" 

 I must confess, a little bit of a right or left angle, and before you know it, you're headed in the wrong direction, seemingly upside down. But you want to know something that is amazing about all of that: No matter how far you might be off track, God is always willing and able to get you back and on the right path...

"All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God's paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all." (Isaiah 53:6 NLT)
