The Bible is full of instructions.

Proverbs 9:27 Cease listening to instruction, my son, And you will stray from the words of knowledge.

I found God by following instructions, not mere head knowledge, but with new experiences. I humbled myself, prayed, meditated, examined myself, confessed, repented, restored wrongs, and helped others, much like the Bible instructs people to do. I'm far from perfect, yet much improved toward love and peace. At first, I didn't want love nor peace. My beliefs and faith trusted in other things. But I was suffering and wanted out. I needed to change. So I decided to listen to some new instructions and see what happens.

Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

The Podcasts are Biblically based and full of instructions. I believe that those who can sincerely give themselves over to the instructions, trusting God completely, and inwardly cooperate with the will of God. love and peace will grow and have good effects both inwardly and outwardly.

I share my experience in the series, "Experiencing God’s Character (9) Peace, Mercy, Forgiveness, Truth, Faith, Joy, Love, Choices, Meditation, "

As you listen, set your thoughts to how you can grow. We can asking ourselves each day, "what new instructions can I follow," and "how much effort or diligence can I apply," "will I try to love someone," and "how might I seek peace?"
