42:1 To the choirmaster. A Maskil of the Sons of Korah. As a hart longs for flowing streams, so longs my soul for thee, O God. Ok guys, you know how when you're in church and they say something like, "Instead of watching TV all the time or texting, get in God's Word." And there you think,"Hmm... yeah i guess i could do that." Then you get home. And what do you do? Watch TV and text all afternoon. Now don't get me wrong, there is NOTHING wrong with either of those things. But longing for that next message or show premiere more than longing to spend time with the Amazing God who created every little detail of you in your mother's womb, and knew your name before you were even conceived? Doesn't something sound a little off with that? Because God wants us to have an intimate relationship with him. When i was younger i used to think i had to use all the "Thee's and Thy's" and just ask for him to forgive me for what i messed up on and then that was it. But now i know it is so much more than that. Just telling Him about your day, and reading His Word. Because it's all in there guys. I mean... if there is a whole book devoted to math and we use it to understand better (Against our will, but you get my point), then we should use His Word as a manual for our life. Cause when you think about it, that's what it really is. Also, listening to Christian music is SO uplifting. I LOVE the song Unbreakable by Fireflight. In the chorus it says, "God, I want to dream again. Take me where i've never been. I wanna go there. This time I'm not scared." I love it because i want to have that outlook on life. And this year i made it "My song" because I feel God wants to do great things with me this year. and i can't do that without putting ALL my trust in Him. Which is hard at times. But TRUST me, it is so worth it. Stay in the Word guys! love ya |
