Back at it

It's been quite a while since my last post. So rather than go back over old territory, I chose to press on.
We have our grandchildren with us, the oldest age 7 is a very sensitive quite smart young lady who is a pleaser, she loves to please you and avoid conflict. The youngest is 4 never agrees with anything you say and refuses to be instructed or take orders or requests. This has made life quite challenging. And then I think about how we must appear to the Lord, when Jesus spoke to Peter and said "Peter do you love me" Peter responded and we all do the same for the most part; where there should be agape, there is phileo.
Oh to have our whole hearts given to God in obedience, to submit to Him without hesitation yeilded to His will and desire.
It is something we need to pray for and ask the Holy Spirit to empower us to this end.
