Trust God

I have been pondering lately how tired and worn out a person can get and how that affects their relationship with God. It's a really unfortuante thing that we can be the general manager of the universe and control all of the things around us. Unfortuantly, I don't think people realize that that should not be the case in the first place. God did not design us to control everything or even make things perfect. Sometimes I think people feel as though they have to take the whole world upon their shoulders when what be really should be doing is trusting in God. When we put our trust in God, it's amazing how He can change your life. If you feel like you can't handle something or even if you feel like you can, imagine what could happen if you let the creator of the universe handle it? God is there no matter what, it's really up to us and our willingness to let go and let God.

Playing with Fire

You know how people talk about going to God conferences and then getting on fire for God. It's true what they say they get on fire for God and them somehow that fire goes out. We as humans tend to forget who the number one person in our lives should be. But the conferences and retreats we go to should not be something that gets us on fire for God, it should just be another oppurtunity to really see how great our God is. You see... I will no longer declare that I am on fire for God, but that I am going to play with God's fire in my life. I want to go to the next level. I want so much more than this mediocre "fire" people talk about. I want God himself. We can now see God face to face. I don't know about anyone else, but I want that face to face relationship with God.
