Change Yourself
“Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.” (Jeremiah 6:16)
Today’s Morsel: According to George Washington, “Everyone wants to change the world, but no one thinks of changing themselves.” We can never change the world and its evil ways, not until we change ourselves first. Many can see the changes that others need to make in their lives, but few can see the changes that they need to make in their own life. In today passage, we see that apparently the people did not have rest. They must have been perplexed and in despair in some areas of their life, which was preventing them from have peace and contentment in themselves. So the Lord tells them what they needed to do to find rest for their souls. But apparently the answer He gave them was not the answer they wanted to hear. And so they said that we will not walk there in. When God tells you how to fix your problem, you must accept it and do it; because if nothing changes, nothing changes. You are not going to change anything else until you change you and your way of thinking. Folks who do not change when they see that they need to change aren’t hurting others, they are only hurting themselves. Look into yourself and ask the Lord to show you what needs to change.
Sing: Change my heart O’ God make it ever true, change my heart O’ God, may I be like You.
Thought For Today: To make things better in your life, it starts with changing the man or woman in the mirror.
