A Smoky Mountain HI

Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com

Man can be right but God can never be wrong.

Man is in a bit of conflict because we fear Him and love Him at the same time, We desire His Holiness and yet want our own way. We need Him desperately but want our freedom. We recognize our need of His presence and we know we live in His presents; but often live like we think He is busy somewhere else. We crave the Heart of God but give excuses to avoid praying, reading the Bible and going to church. Somehow we feel that we are too busy for Him, so perhaps He is too busy for us. We forget that the Bible tells us that His eye is on us continually, not to judge us but to help, guide and empower us to live a meaningful Christian life.

The more we find ourselves comfortable in His “everlasting arms” the more our happiness turns into joy. Joy is a bi-product of doing the will of God in our life. The closer we are to the Father and the more we press towards the goal of becoming Christ like, the more effective, and useful our lives become; at work, at home and in touching the lives God brings into our lives each day.

It is Jesus, Himself, that told us to call God, our Father, in the Lord’s prayer, ‘Our father who art in Heaven hollowed be they name…”
