Phil 2:12-16
I am reminded to
Do what has to be done.
Do it when it has to be done.
Do it as wll as it can be done
Do it that way all the time.
websters dic. defin. of discipline...training that corrects, molds or perfects the mental facilities or moral character. This was Pauls burden for the Philipians in their own moral character and falls in line with the " mind of Christ".
Been reading FB Meyer who was a really good author. Reading about Pauls life. The subject is what God does, and what our responsiblity is....to will and to do....here is a quote by Fb Meyer
" He may be working in you to confess to that fellow Christian that you were unkind in your speech or act. Work it out. He may be working in you to give up that line of business about which you have been doubtful lately. Give it up. He may be working in you to be sweeter in your home, and gentler in your speech. Begin. He may be working in you to alter your relations wiht some with whom you have dealings that are not as they should be. Alter them. This very day let God begin to speak, and work and will ; and then work out what He works in. God will not work apart from you, but He wants to work through you. Let Him. Yeild to Him, and let this be the day when you shall begin to live in the power of the mighty Indwelling One."
Oh that I would live my life that way.... Begin....and keep on going!
