Nutrients of Worship (N.O.W.)
As God's children, our worship should be lived out!
These scriptures are much needed vitamins and nutrients to aid our healthy walk with Christ.  They provide strength, encouragement, conviction and direction for our spiritual lives.

“Do not love the world or any thing in the world.  If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.  For everything in the world- the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does comes not from the Father but from the world.  The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.”  I John 2:15-17

It’s so easy to get caught up in the modes of transportation.  So much so we lose the very value of the ability we were fashioned for, which is walking.  It’s amazing what God can say to you when you are doing things His way.  And it’s also pretty amazing how something we consider normal (driving) can be a distraction from communicating with God. 

Just yesterday I decided to take a walk, and during that walk, I was able to observe the beauty of His Creation all around me.  I was able to thank God for being able to breathe and have the endurance to walk.  I was able to smile at the beauty that our Father in Heaven created for us.  I am not saying that it's wrong to drive at all, however, I am saying it’s easy for us to get used to and love the normality's of the world.  We miss so many blessings and lessons when we forget to crave and desire those things that are good. 

This world and all its bells and whistles, so to speak, will pass.  But God shall reign forever!  The Apostle John was speaking to members of the church in Asia Minor; he was encouraging them to continue walking with Christ and his teachings, and not to give in to the false beliefs and sinful lifestyles.  This still applies to us all today.  Lets make sure that our passion and desires are on those things that are Eternal and not on things that are temporary. 

Walk in the Light,

Reco
