Obedience, it's that simple

You don't have to be smart, good looking, or even brilliant to do that which God desires most, obedience. Anyone can qualify, but few choose to. This idea of God before all things is the simple test that demonstrates to me whether God is first or not in my life. If he is, then I am beign obedient. If He is not in some areas, then I'm not being partially obedient, I'm being disobedient, period. May we learn from those who have gone before us and shown us what not to do. I believe that there is much to be learned in the successes and failures of those that have gone ahead of us. Often times, i have discovered that God honored obedience. That obedience resulted in innovation and success. You don't have to be smart to obey, but you would be stupid not to. Obedience, it's that simple.
