For my Salvation comes from the LORD alone.. Jonah2

Jonah Prayer of thanksgiving, not a prayer for deliverance, Jonah simply thankful that he had not drowned, Jonah said "as my life was slipping away, i remembered the LORD",..
Often we act the same way. When life is going well, we tend to take GOD for granted; but when we lose hope, we cry out to HIM. This kind of relationship with GOD can result only in an inconsistent, up and down spiritual life.
A consistent, daily commitment to GOD promotes a solid relationship with HIM. Look to GOD during both the good and bad times, and you will have a stronger life.

Tempted to fall back into legalism.. Heb1

Jesus was GOD's agent in creating world: "for through Him, GOD created everything" (Col1). As followers of Christ, we may easy assent to this truth but deny it in practice.
We may believe that Christ knows & controls the law of heaven (pertaining to salvation & spiritual growth), but we may act each day as though our financial, family, or medical problems are beyond His reach.
If Jesus could create the universe, then no part of life is out of His control.
Talk to HIM in prayer and listen to HIM in HIS word. He can sustain you in times of stress. From that perspective you can evaluate all the other wisdom and help made avaible to you.

Light to My Soul.. Tit1

Some people see good all around them, while others see nothing but evil. What is the difference? 
Our souls become filters through which we perceive goodness or evil. The pure (those who have Christ in control of their lives) learn to see goodness and purity even in this evil world. But the corrupt and unbelieving people find evil in everything because their evil minds and hearts color even the good they see and hear.
whatever you choose to fill your mind with will affect the way you think and act. Turn your thoughts to GOD and HIS WORD, and you will discover mo and more goodness, even this evil world.
A mind filled with good has a little room for what is evil.

Sola Fide.. Tit1

The good news of salvation is that we cant be saved by living a good life; we are saved only by faith in Jesus Christ. But the Gospel transforms peoples lives, so that they eventually perform good deeds.
Our service wont save us, but we are saved to serve GOD.
A good life is a witness ti the Gospels power. As Christian, we must have commitment and discipline to serve.
Are you putting your faith into action by serving others?
