Find Him With Your Heart.

 “But from there you will search again for the Lord your God. And if you search for him with all your heart and soul, you will find him.” Deuteronomy‬ ‭4:29‬ ‭

This verse tells us that we will find Him when we search for God with our whole hearts and soul. I know it's fast paste in the world where we all get caught up in school, work, events, errands, and shopping, but we can't let those things be the king of our hearts. When you're truly searching for God you're breaking away from the things that took up more space than Him in your heart, your heart's focus is completely on God. You can't worship two things at one time, you have to choose one thing to be king of your heart. We forget that our hearts and souls go together, and we have to let them flow Living Water from God. We tend to put other things over God, when in reality if we want Him to put us first why would we put Him last? I read this story of a preacher, preaching to a crowd, a person in the crowd stepped forward and gave God a gift, the preacher continued preaching and so the same person gave another gift, but it wasn't what the preacher was looking for exactly still so the preacher continued preaching. After the preacher continued preaching the same person from the crowd came up and said "I give Jesus my whole heart." That is when God filled them with His Holy Spirit. You will receive God's spirit when you give him your entire heart. Stop holding back, and start holding on to the helm of his robe! Give your heart to Jesus and less to this world. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.”Proverbs‬ ‭3:5‬ ‭ “Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’” Matthew‬ ‭22:37‬ “And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.” Deuteronomy‬ ‭6:5‬ ‭ ““The Lord your God will change your heart and the hearts of all your descendants, so that you will love him with all your heart and soul and so you may live!” Deuteronomy‬ ‭30:6‬ ‭

Happiness That Will Never Fulfill.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37:4‬ ‭ Happiness is something we are all searching for in life, it's something that we each want to feel. I have come to realize if I want to feel happiness it begins with finding God. I will never be happy in this world when I don't have God in my life. Although people think they might be happy on earth now, there will come a time for eternity and if their lives are full of sin then happiness will never last. Believing that this world can satisfy your soul is only lying to yourselves. You have to find a true meaningful relationship with God and work on it everyday, you aren't called to be perfect but you have to make an effort. God knows your heart, and if you're trying He sees that. Today, spend time truly seeking God for the happiness you're searching for. This earth cannot fill your soul. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken sp...

Wait Patiently!

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭ If God is making you wait, then wait patiently. Nothing in the waiting is a waste. I remember a time in my life where I was praying for something, I waited years and seem to receive no answer. I waited and waited. Somedays I was impatient and cried all day, other days I waited with patience of steel and praised God for what I knew I would someday receive. Sometimes the waiting is easy, other times it is an uphill battle. Whenever we are waiting we will go through different seasons, but we can count on the fact that God is at work for us. The waiting is important and a lesson is somewhere in the midst. Today, whatever it is God is having you wait for know that the season of waiting is often a time you look back on as a blessing. Even if it doesn't feel like a blessing now someday you will see how close the waiting brought you to God. When we are waiting we often spend more tim...

Don't Forget God!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ Don't forget God when you receive what you are praying for. God knows the things that we want the most, and often times He does give us what we want. When God does give us the things we want we have to stop and give thanks. It's like this, if you give someone a gift that you know they have really been wanting, something they will absolutely love, and they don't even say thank you it would hurt your feelings. It would make you feel like they don't appreciate you. If someone asked how they got the gift and they said they got it for themselves it would make you hurt also. When God gives us what we are praying for we need to shout from the rooftops that God done it for us, that He made a way. We need to thank God, telling everyone about it. We should be excited to tell others about God and all the wonderful things He does for us. Toda...
