I was just talking about this last Sunday in Church - about the spiritual life: spiritual taste and sight and hearing. A spiritually dead person never gets spiritually hungry. Ye must be born again. They that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh, but they that are after the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death...

We do miss so many blessings when we go our own way. One thing that encourages me with Ps. 81:10b is that the Lord will fill our mouths with the RIGHT WORDS whenever we try to witness to others. We had a missionary at church last night who challenged us about loving sinners and sharing Jesus with them. So often we are afraid to speak out, but if we remember that the Lord will "fill our mouths" with what we need to say, there is no need to fear. Also, stopping to depend on Him with filling our mouth with the right words to others would tremendously help us with the sins of the tongue. I realize the verse is talking about blessings that God wanted to give to Israel, but the Lord brought these thoughts to my mind, and I thought I would share them. Keep up your goals of writing a journal. Doing it everyday while you are young will help you keep it up when you are older and get very busy with a family.
