“…giving all diligence, add to your faith
virtue and to virtue knowledge.” II Pt 1:5
God
would give unto you what you would ask if you knew what He knows. Joy in one’s
life flourishes, when their individual purpose and effort facilitates God’s guidance
and inspiration in their daily living. Being alive only to appetite, pleasure,
pride, money-making prosperity and not to goodness, love, patience, generosity
and faith in God’s eternal hope is what deprives one’s self of joyful
living. Choosing to live by Godly virtue
is to acknowledge what God knows and leads to life that is pleasing to God.
Know that one’s eternal destiny and rewards are the results of choice, not
chance. Charles Spurgeon stated: “The
more objects you set your mind on, other than God, the more the thorns there
are to shred the joy and peace from the heart.” Virtuous living fuels a love for God that is so
intoxicating, it’s like a moth being drawn to a flame.
Go
ahead; ask of God as you would ask if you knew what He knows. I promise He will
answer!
