"After this, many of HIS Disciples drew back (returned to their old associations) and no longer accompanied HIM. JESUS said to the Twelve, Will you also go away? [And do you too desire to leave ME?]" ~John 6:66-67~ (AMP)

Many of Jesus' Disciples left Him and went back to their old-fleshly ways, because they couldn't handle the Truth and walk in Truth because of their guilt! They felt condemned vs. conviction...They loved their old ways vs. GOD'S Way! And yet, Jesus gave His Twelve Disciples "choice"..."You do not want to leave too, do you?" (NIV)

When the going gets tough, sometimes it's easier for most of us to just turn our tails under and run the other way! Away from Jesus and ALL GOD'S Promises and Truth! Truth and Change is hard for a lot of us! It's hard, but we must learn to "die to self" daily the more and more we persevere in following CHRIST JESUS and take hold of ALL GOD'S Promises and live in HIS Righteousness....Change! It's hard to just "change" on our own toward GOD'S Goodness unless we're led by the Holy Spirit and surrender to HIM~We need to encourage one another in pressing forward in CHRIST, till we're mature and strong enough to desire more of the LORD and becomes "natural" for us to walk in Righteousness and live in GOD'S Truth...Change is GOOD when we desire more of JESUS!

DEAR LORD, thank YOU for enabling us to desire more of YOU and less of us! So when the going gets tough~May we continue in YOUR Strength to keep on pressing forward with YOU at our side! We Love You Lord! In Jesus' Mighty Name! AMEN AND AMEN!
