Lessons learned can be of no avail if they are not applied later. So many times, I hear you say, "Well, I guess I really learned my lesson this time!" However, if you repeat once again the same mistake, you really have not learned your lesson.
The lessons I want you to learn will help keep from making wrong decisions that will have eternal consequences. There are only three lessons I want you to keep in your heart and apply in your life. The three lessons are based on two simple commandments, "Love the Lord your God with all your mind, soul and strength and love your neighbor as yourself. The lessons I want you to learn are: Learn to abide in Me, My Word, and My love.
You learn to abide in Me when you are aware of My presence with you moment by moment. You abide in My Word when you take time to meditate on My Word and then take action to apply My Word. You learn to abide in My love as you learn to walk continually in My Spirit.
My love is shed abroad in your heart by My Holy Spirit. Only My Holy Spirit can help you love like I love. Daily review these lessons and apply them, and you will have abundant peace and joy.
JOHN 15
