New Character Qualities

Galatians 5:22-23 But what happens when we live God's way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments,not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way.

Ask God to develop new chareacter qualities in you!

Step 7 - Humbly asked God to remove our shortcomings

When We Pray!

Ephes. 6:18 In the same way, prayer is essential in this ongoing warfare. Pray hard and long. Pray for your brothers and sisters. Keep your eyes open. Keep each other's spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out.

"Prayer is not conquering God's reluctance, but taking hold of His willingness.' What a great quote! God is always waiting on our calling. our requesting, our summoning.

Praise Him for being so readily available
Reach our regularly, rely on Him.
Allow Him to communicate with you.
Yield everything to His persuasions
Enlist His help, entrust yourself to Him.
Retain constantly your deepest hopes in Him.
