God Of Your Life....Or God Of Your Day.....

In what box are you putting God?   Is He God of your life or God of your day?    When God is God of your life....you live as though He is always with you.    You walk and you talk recognizing His presence.   But in a lot of cases people try to make Him God of their day or of the moment in which they need His help.   At that point they pull out the box that they put Him in and call upon Him in their time of need.  In most cases the box stays hidden or put away.   It is as though we put God in storage.  

Do you not realize that God wants all of you?  He is not a convenience store where you can run in and pick up what you want and run back out.     Yet that is what we do.   We need healing.....so we run into prayer and ask Him to heal us and run back out and neglect our bodies.   We do things that fail to line up with His word so we run in and ask for forgiveness.....yet we never truly repent.   When you truly repent....you not only express remorse for what you have done....but you begin to think differently.   You make a change.   You turn away from and do things differently.

What if Jesus was Jesus for a moment?   For the moment in time in which He lived.   Where would we be?   What would we have?   What could we do?  We need to learn and understand that God wants to be God of our lives.   Not just in our moments of desperation.....but in every moment.    God is not just concerned about when we need Him.   He also wants to laugh when we laugh and rejoice when we rejoice.   But we need to make sure that He is our source of laughter and enjoyment.   

Your life is what distinguishes you from everything else.    The question is ....is the distinguishing factor God?   Is the one noticeable difference in your life God?   When I look at you....what reflects the most?   Is it your attitude, your demeanor, or your God?     Do people see the God in you in more than in just your moment of need?   If God is only reflected in your moment of need.....if that is the only time people can see Him in you.....if that is the only time people can hear Him in you......then maybe He is still God of your day or of a particular moment and not the God of your life.

What Do You Do When You Are Not Sure What To Do?

In the midst of all the trials that come with life, what do you do when you don’t know what to do?   Do you quit?   Do you give in?   Do you...
