For by grace you are saved... not by works. Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace you are saved... not by works. Ephesians 2:8-9
You cannot serve two masters. If I am truly your Master, you will desire to please Me above all others. If pleasing people is your goal, you will be enslaved to them. People can be harsh task-masters when you give them this power over you. If I am the Master of your life, I will also be your First Love. Your serving Me is rooted and grounded in My vast, unconditional Love for you. The lower you bow down before Me, the higher I lift you up into intimate relationship with Me. The Joy of living in My Presence outshines all other pleasures. I want you to reflect My joyous Light by living in increasing intimacy with Me.”
Matthew 6:24; Revelation 2:4; Ephesians 3:16-17: Psalm 16:11
