ARE YOU TEACHABLE?

I CHRONICLES 16: 11

Look to the Lord and His Strength;  seek His face always!

Several things are pressing in on my brain today!  Questions in particular!

God wants our full attention, our full obedience.  He wants us to seek Him at all corners, roads, junctures, etc.  I have been one to not clean out the corners very well.  How about you.  It takes a toothbrush sometimes to get things.  Or maybe even a q-tip.  I don't like getting down on the floor to do it, so it doesn't get done.  What does that have to do with anything?  Think about your own life right now.  I am quite tired of thinking about mine, but God doesn't always give us a break.  How holy is your thinking these days, your obedience, your teach-ability.  Are you humble?

Pastor Stu was talking about John 14: 15 to the end of the chapter.  Are we teachable?  It takes humility to be less worldly.  That takes some seeking God and His strength to put a fence around that
concept.  I have always thought I was way out there and extremely teachable.  I found myself in the corner looking hard at the pile up of dirt in that corner.  One particular aspect of my personality sucks this afternoon.  Think about it for yourself today.  See what you come up with.  Ask for forgiveness, ask Him along on the journey, be willing to be changed.
