Obedience through faith

 Romans 1:5 “Through Him and for His name’s sake, we received grace and apostleship to call people from among the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith.  6And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ. “.  Obedience that comes through faith, this is hitting my heart hard this morning.    Left to my own thoughts, I  live in compromise.   I want to do right, but can feel defeated and think, “ A little compromise, that will be okay”.   I do not get away with this type of thinking when I seek God first.  When I seek Him first, I remember He is with me always, and He is working all things out for His glory and my good.   I remember He sees my every action and loves me.   I want to be obedient because I want to be pleasing to God,  I have faith that He truly knows and cares for me. This is faith.  This discernment helps me accept the things I cannot change, have the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to not the difference.   Thank you Lord, for giving us the desire for obedience because of faith.   We are saved by grace not by works but walking a good walk is a much better life here on Earth. 😇🙏❤️
