PONDER THESE MINUTE CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONS FROM THE DIARY OF AN OLD EARNEST CHRISTIAN

By Frank Henrich 2004

1. The Christian walk is a walk in Christian humility and Christian meekness with a proper balance between spiritual and worldly aspects.

2, In your Christian walk, work hard for God promised food to the birds but He does not throw it into their nest. Then let God guide your way through circumstances, unseen to others, as are His ways. God never violates His word in the Bible. Pray for the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

3. Accept the fact you will never have a solid grasp on the workings of the spiritual world. Therefore you must walk in faith in Jesus, who will always be your guide.

4. God can use you as a supporting actor in lessons He is teaching others; recognize that you are not always the main character.

5. Richard of St. Victor, a monk in a monastery in France wrote around 1170 AD a story called Benjamin Minor describing the road of an earnest Christian. His description is worth finding the article. Yes, you can find it!

6. Let your love always be genuine. Seek things for others in love and they will respond with same. If hurt, let your anger turn to pity for they do not have Jesus’ love in them.

7. Stick to the Christian fundamentals in your walk and in judging other Christians. Let the fine points not needed for salvation, remain undecided for now.

8. Remember God can end good projects. They are in His timing. Keep your walk in the Lord Jesus fun. Give Him your burdens. Seek your pastor’s counsel and other Christian friends on emotionally packed decisions.

9. Ask God to use you to save lost souls. Some souls are so needful; fasting must be added to prayer. Maintain a close relationship with a band of Christians in a weekly Bible study.
