Tuesday: The Disciplined Will
One of the greatest enemies of our wills is our own feelings. We are increasingly living in a culture bombarded with pictures and music that can appeal directly to our senses, triggering our emotions — anger, fear, or lust — without our realizing it. How often do we think such things as “What do I feel like eating for supper?” “What do I feel like doing today?” “Do I feel good about buying this?” Feelings have thus become intimately involved in our decision-making. Feelings are not necessarily bad, but how I feel about something may have little to do with what is right or best. Indeed, our feelings can lie to us (“The heart is deceitful above all things” [Jeremiah 17:9]) and can create a false picture of reality, causing us to make bad choices, setting us up for a crucible of our own making.

What examples can you find from the Bible where people made choices based on feelings rather than on God’s Word? What were the consequences? See for example, Genesis 3:6; 2 Samuel 11:2-4; Galatians 2:11-12.
Read 1 Peter 1:13. What is Peter concerned about, and what does he want his readers actually to do?
Peter understood that the mind is the rudder for the body that we control. Take away the control of the mind, and we will be controlled by whatever feelings blow our way.
Imagine walking along a narrow path to the Shepherd’s home. Along the way there are many paths leading in different directions. Some of these paths go to places that we would not want to visit. Others look tempting; they appeal to our feelings, our emotions, our desires. If, though, we take any one of them, we get off the right path and go in a way that might be exceedingly difficult to get off.
| What important decisions are you facing? Ask yourself honestly, “How can I know if I am basing my choices on feeling, emotion, desire, as opposed to the Word of God?” |
Amen!

Genesi 3:12-13 – L'uomo rispose: ‘La donna che tu mi hai messo accanto mi ha dato dell'albero e io ne ho mangiato’.

6: Struggling with All Energy – Singing with Inspiration
Having scanned through the lesson quarterly, there are so many hymns from which to choose a theme. In effect, there is a commencing theme hymn which changes through the quarter to the finale theme hymn. To start with, we could use:
Hymn 552 – The Lord’s My Shepherd or
Hymn 545 – Savior, Like a Shepherd.
Somewhere in the middle of the quarter one could change the theme and add in 
Hymn 159 – On a Hill Far Away which is where we complete our studies in Lesson 13.
Sabbath afternoon’s introductions tells us of our will and how it has impact on our choices, so
Prince of Peace, Control My Will – Hymn 153.
On reading John 16:5-15 (Sunday), we are encouraged to request
Come, Holy Spirit – Hymn 269,
Hymn 266 – Spirit of God so that we may then be able to sing
Sweet, Sweet Spirit – Hymn 262 because we have prayed
Spirit of the Living God – Hymn 672.
Time and effort are required “to achieve something worthwhile in this life” which shows we are
Working, O Christ, With Thee – Hymn 582. Continuing on in Monday, we find Paul struggling with God requesting he
Come, Labor On – Hymn 357.
Tuesday has the theme of
Prince of Peace, Control My Will – Hymn 153 from Sabbath afternoon’s introduction, and again presents for Wednesday.
Ellen G White’s writings on Friday will have us singing
Just a Closer Walk With Thee because:
<blockquote>I am weak but Thou art strong,
Jesus keep me from all wrong,
Daily walking close to Thee,
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
Just a closer walker with Thee,
Grant it, Jesus, is my plea,
Daily walking close to Thee,
Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
(writer/composer unknown)</blockquote>
To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/
Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
Amen!(0)
