Wig’s Word of God Today 8-27-2011
Aspire to live a tranquil life, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your [own] hands, as we instructed you, that you may conduct yourselves properly toward outsiders and not depend on anyone.
1 Thessalonians 4:11-12
1 Thessalonians 4:9-12, Psalm 98 & Matthew 25: 14-30
Paul reminds us today to live for the LORD’s Truth in life of the mundane as well as the life of supernatural grace by forming Godly habits through faith, charity and love in practice, prayer and proclamation. We are not born with habits or character; we must strive by our decision to allow God’s only Son to be our strength and Salvation to create Christ-like habits in our everyday life. The life of normal day-to-day things that seem boring and dry of God’s presence is when we must lift our hands high and be one with God in every step we make.
The tranquil life of serving the LORD can and will have those moments when every part of you is illuminated with His Spirit lifting you out of a cloud of despair and haze in situations you feel lost and hopeless by. There might be a great Light of Truth illuminated in your mind and soul that takes you to His Resting Place allowing you a feeling of safety and peace. But God is not going to give you Godly habits without effort on your part by diligently seeking His Truth more so in the times when life seems dry and lacking God’s flair. It is in these times of common moments that we must learn to live with the Power of God to fulfill His Will in everything we do. Seek His Kingdom by effort in charity and love to accomplish true communion with His purpose for you and the habits you create because of His Grace. Amen.
So we ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to live a life of forming habits for Your Truth by sharing Your Son’s Gospel with the people we know and don’t know. Give us strength of Purpose for Your Glory. We pray today for Alexandra’s peace and healing. We pray a special prayer for Christine O’Donnell who fights for God’s Right to be everything the USA was meant to be. God Bless you and your work. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28
“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed“
God’s Son is Your Life to Grow
Charity for strangers is Truth
Where your love of Him as proof
The help they gain from use
Sharing the love of God not excuse
Progress even more for Him
Don’t allow Satan to win
Diligence in prayer and in practice
To make God of your life active
Live to aspire tranquility of hope
Knowing God’s Truth to always cope
Of work in life with hands to show
God’s Son is your life to always grow
