Earthkumy:
Becoming a true Disciple

Disciple means follower, and Christianity is not a democracy where popular opinion counts. Christianity is a kingdom where the voice of the master is the ultimate. Jesus says if you love me obey my commandments, in other words no other way around our relationship with God. Unless you learn to listen to the master and the written word which is His commandments.
Someone once asked me what my ambition is. I told him that since I gave my life to Christ and made him the Lord of my life, I don't have personal ambition. My only ambition is to do the will of he who is the Lord of my life which is Jesus Christ. Anything you see me do is because he asks me to and I might make mistakes along the way but my focus is the will of my Lord. The devil is smart to know our personal desires and amplifies it to make us anxious and unreasonable to the will of God. Which will make our desires to be in conflict and we become deaf to the voice of God. Why our prayers and communication to God is centered on what we want, and has little to do with God's purpose for us and the Church. If you want to work in that peace that passes all understanding you have to step back from your personal desire and lusts and ask the Father 'what is thy will'. In the will of God there's peace even when it is accompanied with a valley of death, in that we fear no evil, because those that know their God, will do exploit. A true disciple doesn't follow his/her feelings or desires, a true disciple follows the master's commands.

I pray we turn from our personal lusts and search out our masters command and follow it to the glory of His name Amen
