Accept No Second-Bests
In the depths of his being man always feels intuitively that there is a way out of his difficulties if only he can find it. The infant, as yet uncontaminated by the defeatism of his elders, simply refuses to tolerate inharmony on any terms, and therefore he demonstrates over it. When he is hungry he tells the world while many a sophisticated adult goes without. Does he find a pin sticking in some part of his anatomy? Not for him a sigh of resignation to the supposed “will of God,” or a whine about never having any luck, or a sigh that what cannot be cured must be endured. His instincts tell him that life and harmony are inseparable.
Refuse to tolerate anything less than harmony. You can have a happy and joyous life. But to do so you must seize the rudder of your own destiny and steer boldly for the port that you intend to make. What are you doing about your future?
For not the hearers of the Law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified (Romans 2:13).
Who holds the rudder in our lives and what is our intended port. When we give the tiller to God and plot a course for God’s kingdom, we are seizing our rudders and giving them to our creator. By setting our course on the garden God gave, we surrender our ship and our destiny to God.
There is nothing more important to our successful future than to give our will, our direction, yes our entire ship to God’s will. Then we will sail safely to our port, to be welcomed in our Eden by God and all those who have chosen the same destination.
Accepting the best,
Z gardener
