What' I know' is that I do not write(speak) of my own accord, but is from Him who sends me out in the world. Same as' I know' as I was writing the above, that when you wandered, He was right there waiting for you, but you perceived Him not, just like David. "How long o Lord will you hide your face from me." It is to late for us now, amadeus, for who truly could wander from a Love such as This?

It is about being mature in the Lord. Through prayer, Bible study, and church. Fellowship with believers. As I believed in Christ but did not grow in Him. That was the problem. And trying to make up for it. And now feeling closer. I was young and a bit Miss Know It All. Christ taught me otherwise.
How long indeed? Over the years I have done a lot of wandering, but the very idea of turning my back on God in favor of the best the world of men has to offer holds no appeal to whatsoever now. My biggest battles now are not usually dealing with the lust of the eye or the lust of the flesh... but with that last nasty one: the pride of life. Each morning and sometimes during a day, I have to humble myself down to the nothing that I really am without Him and let Him work on me one more time. He does. This is the dying daily.
Give God the glory!

"This is the dying daily."
Well, how great it is then that His mercies are new daily. Amen to that!
Wow! Look at that man run!!

This is so good! We get distracted by other people and their flesh. But so much of the way of life in Christ is between us and God personally. Can we do things as unto the Lord...and not directly to the person who is troubling us? Can we do things to please the Lord leaving ourselves out of the equation?
I would say that unless we are crucified at that time with Christ...we will succumb at some point to reacting in the flesh. Only dead men don't react.
Hence the need to go to God to be crucified anew...or for the very first time!
Added: It reminds me of this joke where a man dies and comes to Peter at the gate to heaven. Peter asks...what have you done to make heaven your destination? The man replies...once I was in a meeting and this lady said "supposably" three times...and I didn't even say anything to her even afterwards. Peter responds..."come on in!"
