Nov.28.00: Light For The Day - "Conscience ..." -- 1 Peter 3:16,17 (NLT) "...... Keep your conscience clear. Then if people speak evil against you, they will be ashamed when they see what a good life you live because you belong to Christ. 17 Remember, it is better to suffer for doing good, if that is what God wants, than to suffer for doing wrong!" ----------------- What is conscience?  God has put within each one of us something that cries aloud against us, whenever we do that which we know to be wrong. Conscience is the detective that watches the direction of our steps and decries every conscious transgression.  Conscience is a vigilant eye before which each imagination, thought, and act, is help up for either censure or approval.  I believe there is no greater argument for the existence of God in the world today than conscience. There is no greater proof of the existence of a moral law and Lawgiver in the universe than this little light of the soul.  It is God's voice to the inner man.  Conscience is our wisest counselor and teacher, our most faithful and most patient friend. -- Billy Braham Prayer: Thank You, Father, for my conscience which checks me and guards my actions.  Help me to be alert to its prompting,  through Your Holy Spirit. ----------------- -- Hebrews 13:18 (NLT) "Pray for us, for our conscience is clear and we want to live honorably in everything we do."
