The Missing Link in the Process of Sanctification

What is life? How can you choose life? When the scriptures speak of life and death, life is described as both physical and transitory and as eternal and spiritual. There is no question about the transitory, physical part. We are born, we live and we die. But if that was all there was to it, then those who say, "Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die" would have a good point.

There is not a single "seeker of pleasure," who does not have a spirit within him that casts light on his self centered existence. That light within you is both your hope and your judge. God knows you intimately. Read and understand this next verse and then read the Psalm following it and you will know, if you carefully consider it, that God is "considering" you right now. His thoughts toward you exceed number. This point needs to be made over and over until you understand because it will lead you to understand that God initiates, you respond. It is His Holy Spirit seeking to commune with your spirit. If you feel Him calling and you fail to respond, you are spurning His affection and love. Your inaction is action.
