Life is a Choice
KATHY GABLER—Since choice can be an automatic reflex, we must train ourselves to CHOOSE LIFE. Of course, re-training ourselves is not a stroll in the park. Re-training is never easy because we can’t take down-time to work on it. Re-training happens during real-life problems that just can’t be scheduled. They never come at a good time. Hell’s attacks are never fair. It is very difficult to contradict your emotions, especially when you’ve cried enough to salt a creek and used enough Kleenex to rub your nose right off your face. How do you choose life when you are dealing with relationship issues with someone who won’t even try? How do you choose life when you’re weary because you’ve already made that choice for months, for years, yet you are still smothering in changelessness? It’s difficult to choose life, again and again, when you’re still in the grip of pain and it’s taunting you daily. But in spite of difficulty we must CHOOSE LIFE in order to bring CHANGE in our lifetime.

What Distracts us From Mandate?
Kathy Gabler—Our mandate is to rebuild this temple to house His presence and His purpose. What distracts us from our mandate? One of the things at the top of the list is pain. Pain has a way of capturing our attention. Pain has a way of becoming a priority, but even pain must bow to God’s authority and power and purpose. Marty hurt his back a few years ago. He laid on the bed begging and pleading for healing and relief. Between groans, he decided to call and cancel the service scheduled for the next day which would require four hours driving but the Holy Spirit said, “You are not dealing with this like a son.” “How do I do that, Lord?” he asked aloud. The answer came just as loud. “Declare your position and purpose.” Aloud he began to declare, “God has purpose for me in Lockhart, Texas. I will go and do what I was born to do.” Not even remembering how he got off the bed, he found himself packing. He was still in pain, but able to move again. He took ground inch by inch, moment by moment that day. By the time he stood in the pulpit and preached, the pain had completely left him. He could have thought like Judah, “I will pursue the purposes of God someday, just not now.” I have to recover first! But as he adjusted his priorities in his thinking, the process of healing began as he headed toward purpose.

Sin and Pain
What happens when people are in chaos? What happens when people are in pain? One time I hurt my lower back very badly. I was lying there in the bed crying and groaning because I was in such tremendous pain. Emotional pain as well as physical pain can cause great agony in someone’s life. In Rom.8:19,22 the Bible talks about the earth groaning, creation groaning because creation is suffering from the pain of sin. In sin is that which is outside the order of God. When God gave us the Ten Commandments, He didn’t give us the Ten Commandments so He could be a mean old Father. Some people see Him just yelling “Thou shall not do this. Thou shall not do that. Thou shalt sit still and do nothing”. That’s not why God gave us the Ten Commandments. Why do you think God said, “Thou shall not commit adultery”? There would be no sexual disease if there were no adultery or fornication. Marriages and whole families would not be destroyed. If we stay inside God’s order, if we stay inside the safe boundaries that God sets there is righteousness, peace and joy. When we get outside of the lines and the boundaries, there is pain.

Please Make it Pain Free!
How often do we want to cry, “God, please make it pain free!” The zone of God’s rank and order may not be a pain-free zone. The relationships God puts us in may be for the purpose of causing the friction that burns off the things that cannot come into harmony with the destiny of Jesus. David dodged javelins and John Mark had to dodge Paul. Steel sharpens steel. (Gal.4:19)

Exercise Without Pain
May you exercise without the pain of infirmities. May weaknesses
and restrictions be removed as you move and have your being in
Him. May you make progress beyond what the demographics for
your age suggest.
“For in Him we live, and move, and have our being. . .” (Acts 17:28)
