Psalm 99:1
The LORD reigneth; let the people tremble: he sitteth between the cherubims; let the earth be moved.
What does it mean that the Lord reigns? Do I really understand that? He is above all things yet so often i put things above him in importance. What am I that I out schedule God? How can I put things of less importance over the one who reigneth over all things?
Lord may you rule every aspect of my life

The one thing
Too often i get so caught up in my life. I get so busy doing things that i forget the main reason why i do what i do. God wants me, that it! While i try to do things for his kingdom, the main thing is my relationship with him. My one desire should be to know him and keep that a priority. Working and staying busy will crowd God out and i won't be in a relationship with him at all.

Its not a competition
In this world, everything is a competition, especially in ministry. "How many people come to your service?" or "How many teens come to your youth group?" Numbers are such a measuring factor and I believe numbers have their place but I want God to get the glory! I am "God's building" I am a worker in the fields of harvest and the only one i should seek to please in Him.
I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow. It's not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What's important is that God makes the seed grow. The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. For we are both God's workers. And you are God's field. You are God's building. I Cor 3:6-9 NLT

Psalm 94:19
Awesome verse for me today! (Psalm 94:19)
oh how often i get my head full of thoughts and ambitions. Sometimes i just crash and overload. I needed this passage today! I have the comforts God desires me to have, inside of me. He desires me to have joy and delight and he has given me these things already. However, something gets out of place and my mind takes over, when in my heart God says i have peace for you.
Lord may i seek your peace. You know what will happen with my life. I desire to give it to you and not try and control things with my exhausting thoughts. Amen
