Grace for your spirit October 11, 2013

Grace for your spirit
For the time already past is sufficient for you to have carried out the desire of the Gentiles, having pursued a course of sensuality, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking parties and abominable idolatries.   I Peter 4:3

When we become Christians, it is time for our lists and lusts to change. Do our lists make provision for our lusts, or our commitment to God? Too often, we worship on Sunday, but our lists for Monday contain only the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes,  and the boastful pride of life. It takes real effort to transform, but we are a little too lazy to get that done.  What is controlling our lives?  If it is lists, lusts, and laziness, isn't it time to put those in our past?  Let's start a spiritual list, and put Jesus first in our schedules.
