WHAT DOES GOD EXPECT?

For us to abide in Him. Today the definition of abide is to tolerate, to put up with something. 150 years ago it meant: to dwell: to live or reside in a place (Encarta). Living on the Spiritual Basis is a conscious decision. We choose to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God. Not in the Polly Anna sense but in the dynamic sense. We choose to live our lives, with all our defects and shortcomings, as demonstrations of His love and guidance. Knowing we will make mistakes; forgiven as soon as we ask as long as we sincerely wish to grow, but stepping out in faith regardless. So to abide in God is to live through and of Him, trembling and fearful though we may be, each day, one day at a time.
