K. Wuest's translation of John 8:12 "Then Jesus spoke to them again saying, I alone, in contradistinction to all others, am the light of the world. He who habitually follows with Me shall positively not order his behavior in the sphere of the darkness, but shall possess the light of the Life." I need to habitually follow with Jesus, regardless of whats going on in my life. David says "You see my heart from afar off", we cant fool God. " So Cain became very angry and his countenance fell. Then YHWH said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will not your countenance be lifted up? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door; and it's desire is to have you, but you must master it." Gen 4:5-7 Neil Anderson says; "In other words, you don't feel your way into good behavior, you behave your way into a good feeling." hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
 
Our feelings and thoughts can be very deceiving at times especially when we take our focus of God and only focus on ourselves. God is a very loving and forgiving Father and one who has great patience in us only wanting to give us His very best if would would only allow Him to.
