John 5 & 6The words of Jesus are not suggestions. What He says is mandatory. If we want to please Him we will do what He says, and what He says is not something that takes away our fun. His words, in fact, enhance our lives. Remember, fun and sin are not the same. Sin might seem fun, but only momentarily. Sin is designed by Satan to ruin your life. The joy of the Lord, however, gives you strength, and peace, and rejoicing!
This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him (John 2:11). When Jesus turned the water into wine, the Bible calls that the first manifestation of His glory. He and His disciples were having fun at a wedding celebration. What caused Him to do this? Obedience. His mother gave the best advice found in the Bible. “Whatever He says, do it.” Those servants didn’t question His orders. No asking “Why? Pull up all that water? Why? Tell the Master it’s wine? Why? It’s only water.” No, they just obeyed. Do you want Him to manifest His glory to you? What’s the key to encourage Him to do that? Obedience without question.

Evangelist Teacher Writing has been in my blood, so to speak, but when I surrendered my life to Jesus Christ and He told me to write, all my trepidations rolled away and I began in earnest! After all, if God Almighty says it was His idea that I be a writer, who am I to stand in His way? My hope is that you not only like what I write, but that your life is moved by it, and that your party to Jesus and with Jesus turns your life into days of Heaven on Earth.
