The Happy Lemon

This book is designed to teach you to approach circumstances, relationships, and situations of life from a biblical perspective and to experience victory and contentment in all of life's trials, testings and problems.The essence of who we are is made of events and how we responded to those events. We are the sum of what we encountered in life and our reactions to those experiences. Memory, the recalling of the past, is our spirit gazing at the substance of our soul which, at times, directs our life rather than the word of God. Thus, most of our problems are due to ignorance on how to biblically respond to life, and to use life's adversities to our advantage as opportunities to grow and mature in Christ.These spiritual resources are available to those who are born by the will of God. Having accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, the believer is enabled by Holy Spirit to face life, to counter adversities, to grow in grace and strength, and to live in peace and joy.The issue is the self, the soul of man. The self-created by God, belongs to God. The self, tempted to be god without God, became enslaved by SatanThe living soul is what we will deal with...to set it freeto again be completely dependent upon God to follow Him and to glorify Him.Phil. 2:12-13; 2 Pet. 1:3-11 tell us to work out our salvation daily being conformed to the image of Christ. The key is daily, being God-conscious twenty-four hours a day. Either we are thinking God's thoughts or we defer to lower level thinking. There is no gray area. You are either for God or you are against Him.
