taking a step back

as i was trying to finish this up tonight i was thinking. . . hum what to do the devo on today. Couldn't think of anything in particular and was like come on Erin. . . just think. There i found my problem. So often i want something to happen the way i see it, and I forget who I'm working for. I forget who i dedicated my life to. God what do you want?

As i sat back in my chair saying Lord what do you want to share with us tonight i felt called to say that's exactly the problem sometimes. we get so used to doing things and being praised for it we forget where all our strenght, talent, and life comes from. We forget who we are doing it for, who we are living for.

i challenge you to look at your relationship with God with your life. . . and remember to inculde prayer and asking for God's advice when making decisions. He loves us and wants to be inculded, not just talked about and hung out with in alone time, but also brought with us throughout the rest of our lives.

Acts 17:27-28
27God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 28'For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'

God Bless,
~your sister in Christ, Erin~
