They said that you can find some young women who are committed, but to find a committed young man is like finding some type of hidden treasure. That is beyond sad\u2014it is tragic!<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s get off the \u201cyoung men\u201d kick and face reality. The reality is that it is hard to find virtually anyone in this day and age who is truly committed. Their word is about as good as nothing. They say they will do something, but fail to follow through on their commitment. I can\u2019t begin to tell you of the countless numbers of people who have assured me that they will be in church next Sunday, but never show up.<\/p>\n<p>This word <strong>COMMIT<\/strong> in the Greek is g\u0201lal\u2019. The essential meaning is to \u201croll off or to roll away.\u201d I read it to mean that we are to roll control of our life into His almighty hands and allow Him to take over the control of our life.<\/p>\n<p>The promise that is given here in Psalm 37, is that: <span style=\"color: #c40000;\">&#8220;He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.&#8221;<\/span> I love that! When I am in the driver\u2019s seat, bad things are just around the next bend. When I COMMIT my way to the Lord, He knows what is around the bend or over the hill. I can always rely on Him!<\/p>\n<p>Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; &#8211; &#8211; Pastor Cecil<\/strong><br \/>\n(360) 570-0074<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">P.S. &#8211; You can find previous E-Votionals covering a variety of Scriptures and topics to help you in your walk with the Lord at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Daily-E-Votional.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.Daily-E-Votional.com<\/a> Please feel free to forward this E-Votional on to your family and friends.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Psalm 37:5-6 \u201cCommit your way to the LORD; trust in Him and He will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.\u201d Last week I heard someone comment that it is very hard to find young men who are willing to commit.
