Principals

I have been thinking lately of people in the scripture that seemed to start well and finish badly and I was shocked at how many there are. People that somewhere somehow stepped outside the remit of Gods will, they lost their perspective on what honours God and pushed the blessings of God away. Cain, Lot, Esua, King Saul, King Solomon, the list just goes on so what I decided to do being a writer I began to list all the things that I felt honoured God. In contrast to these people walking away from God you have the Apostle Paul who said at the end of his life, I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith, I have finished my course. What a way to end. I have been thinking how Jill ended her race and like Paul she certainly could have made all those remarks and that brings me much joy. She was building the kingdom of God until within seconds of her going home, we where actually discussing a prayer meeting and the power of prayer when she slipped quickly and quietly into the presence of the one we where discussing.
Here is a look at my top ten principal list. Its simple but profound and I hope it blesses you as it has me.
A Biblical perspective on life, Letting go of the past, Honouring the giving principal, Understanding and applying wisdom, Humility, Integrity, Fear of the Lord, Treat your parents right, Honour the elderly/widows/orphans, Honour spiritual leaders, and the House of the Lord.
You keep these ten PRINCIPALS and I believe they will keep you, break them and they will likely break you also.
