God given, time tested truths...

As I read my devotion today watching the rain fall and admiring my beautiful kids, I read about some "God given, time tested truths" and just really thought about how true they are.
  • Love God more then you fear hell
  • When no one is watching, live as if someone is (one of my favorites...even when we think someone isn't watching, there usually is)
  • Succeed at home first
  • Don't spend tomorrow's money today (If only more people would live by this...)
  • Pray TWICE as much as you fret!
  • and lastly.... God has forgiven you; you'd be wise to do the same (not as easy as it sounds sometimes....and sometimes WAY easier then it sounds!
These are defiently things I want to work on in my life to make it better for God, me and my family. I want to be a better person and strive to be more like God.

"Honor God and obey his commands, because this is all people must do." Ecclesiastes 12:13

Great post!!

What kind of devotional do you have? I have finished what I was doing, and was wanting to get a new devotional book. Maybe I will do a post about it, and get some ideas.
