He who thinks he stands....take heed

Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.  
-(1 Cor 10:12 NASB)

Our Christian walk has so many parts doesn't it? We need to be aware of every area of our walk with God because if one area gets a little "off", left unattended, it will likely become even more "off" - and then other areas will follow.

Compare it to someone that eats a very healthy diet, but has little control with sweets. They decide they will just have one bite of their favorite dessert, and that one bite turns into two and then they eat the whole piece and have seconds. The next day they crave sweets and eat even more junk food and eventually they have a two week binge on unhealthy choices.

Our walk with God is not so different. We must be aware of every area of our lives because if one part becomes dishonoring to God, more areas of our lives will likely follow. Underlying every action we take should be a subconscious evaluation: "Does what I am doing please the Lord?"

It is important that we listen for God's conviction and guidance on a daily basis. If we listen, He will waken us morning by morning and cause our ears to hear. He is faithful and ever merciful. Amen!

Isa 50:4b ...He wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
