Carnal or spiritual? That is the real question!!!

Good morning all. God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!
   When someone knocks on your door, your wonder who it is.  When someone knocks loudly on your door you wonder what is going on.  When someone knocks, or bangs loudly and rapidly on your door you wonder want is wrong, what is going on, who could this be.
   Lately God has been knocking or banging loudly on my door and I am trying to listen and hear God.
First, James 4:14 "......life is but a vapour...."   Now, in conjunction with this is Romans 8, verses 5-9. Look at them for a minute and I will cast these forth in 2 versions - KJV and NIV.  May you look at the verses and may it be taken to your heart.
Romans 8:(KJV)⁵ For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.  
             (NIV)⁵ Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.
   Where are you?   Flesh? Or Spirit?  Reflect!!!
   (KJV)   ⁶ For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
(NIV)  ⁶ The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.
   Will you experience death?  OR, will you have life and peace?  Where are your thoughts?  Carnal minded or spirit minded?  Wow!   Major words, questions, and concerns here.  Please reread these words, think about them, and take time to pray.  God is banging on my door and I have to run to answer, to hear, to gain knowledge and wisdom.  And you?!?  More tomorrow in Romans. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
