Daily Thoughts - Make God Known
"Jesus replied, "The first is this: 'Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.'" Mark 12:29-30
"When Sarah's parents left the bedroom and closed the door behind them, Tobiah rose from bed and said to his wife, "My sister, come, let us pray and beg our Lord to grant us mercy and protection." She got up, and they started to pray and beg that they might be protected. He began with these words: "Blessed are you, O God of our ancestors; blessed be your name forever and ever! Let the heavens and all your creation bless you forever." Tobit 8:4-5
Is God first in your life? How we begin our day does make a difference, and how we end it. "In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world."" John 16:33. Our days are not easy, they are not suppose to be. But with God first and love in Your heart, it is a great day and life.
There is much to be gleaned from reading God's word and contemplating the life that He has given you. Whether He is first or not with you, He only seeks what is best. Listen to what He tells you before your feet hit the floor in the morning. Know that you are loved that much. Have a blessed day, make God first and all will be well, no matter what troubles you face. Nothing is greater than Him, not even self.
Dear Lord God, it is a blessed morning pondering the glory of our life's choices. I thank You Father for revealing the body of Christ and how we each are all part of one body that works together. I thank You for the life You have given and I trust and love You in all things. May this day be a fruitful day within Your guidance. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.

Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
