James 1:1, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,

James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,
To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad:

Greetings.

I am gladly reminded of my position as a bondservant of my God and Savior. I will face trials and tribulations, attacks from the enemy and accidents on my part and on the part of others; some will be simple and some will appear more monstrous; some will give me very little trouble while others rub everyone and everything the wrong way.

I wish to focus on His blessings instead and be a willing vessel to be used for whatever He wants of me, regardless of how difficult of uncomfortable it appears.

At times I will be tired, or hungry, or even hurt, but I want to pray and remember what it means to be a bondservant; to work as a bondservant with a good and joyful heart of love and thankfulness.

I will also be going over my previous blogs that relate to being a bondservant as well as the notes I took during our time at Potter's Field Ranch as a reminder of what it means to willingly give all of myself to God, body, heart and soul.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling,
And to present you faultless
Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,
To God our Savior,
Who alone is wise,
Be glory and majesty,
Dominion and power,
Both now and forever.
Amen.
