CHERISH MY WORDS
O My children, obey My words. Do not wander in unbelief and darkness, but let
the scripture shine as a light upon thy path. My Words shall be life unto thee, for
My commandments are given for thy health and for any preservation. They will guard
thee from folly, and guide thee away from danger.
Hide My commandments in thy heart, and make them the law of thy life. Cherish My
words, and take not lightly the least of them. I have not given them to bind thee,
but to bring thee into the life of greatest joy and truest liberty.
I have asked thee to give, in order that I may bless thee more. I have challenged
thee to pray, so that I may respond and help thee. I have asked thee to rejoice,
in order to keep thee from being swallowed up in anxieties. I have asked thee to
be humble, to protect thee from calamities that fall upon the proud. I have asked
thee to forgive, so as to make thy heart fit to receive My forgiveness. I have asked
thee not to love the world, for I would have thee loosed from unnecessary entanglements,
and free to follow Me.
Sanctification is accomplished in no one by accident. Learn My rules, and put them
into practice consistently, if ye desire to see progress in the growth of thy soul.
Holiness is not a feeling-------it is the end product of obedience. Purity is not
a gift--------it is the result of repentance, and a serious pursuit of God.
Cherish my Words and Dependence on God were taken from the book "Come Away
My Beloved"
