BALANCE

This is an age when believers talk a great deal about balance.  So many feel that if you are so heavenly minded you are no earthly good.  However, this is not what My Word says.  My Word exhorts believers to set their affections on the things that are above and not on this earth.  My Word says that believers are not to become entangled with the lusts of the world (the lust of the flesh - seeking immediate gratification of physical senses; the lust of the eyes -covetousness and vain imaginations; and the pride of life - trusting in yourself more than you trust in Me.

Instead of concentrating on being balanced, focus on Me.  When you keep your focus on Me, you will not worry or be anxious about the current events that you hear about daily.  You will be able to put your full trust in Me instead of depending upon your own resources and abilities.  Never forget that I am the One Who works through you both to will and to do of My Father's good pleasure.  It is His good pleasure to give you His Kingdom of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.  You can experience these blessings daily as you keep your mind stayed upon Me.
