Obedience vs. Stubborness

Have you ever felt like doing something you really like but deep inside of you, you know that God isn’t leading you to that path? Have you ever felt that God is already calling you but you are just so stubborn to follow and respond to Him? You know and do believe that 
God knows what’s best for you but you just don’t want to accept it since it is not correlated with the plan that you have. In short, you are falling into your own battle with yourself.  

As Pastor Rick Warren says, “Obedience and stubbornness are two sides of the same coin. Obedience brings joy, but stubbornness makes us miserable.”

Perhaps right now, you’ll say that the road you would like to take is the road that would make you happy. But God wants you to be happy – long term happiness and He knows what is best for you. That is why He is leading you to another road.

If a rebellious spirit is keeping us from obeying God, it’s time for a change of heart. Return to the Lord; He is gracious and merciful.

Brothers and sisters, I don’t know what battle you are in now.. but I would just like to assure you that you are not alone. God is there beside you, just waiting for you to call on Him. Call upon Jesus and He will surely help you win in whatever battle you are in.

Think about this: First we make our habits; then out habits make us.
Make being Obedience as your habit and sooner or later that habit of obeying God will make you.


God Bless You God’s Beloved! :)
