I really need to stop SLACKING on GOD... He's done too much for me, for me not to give Him His due time... I always find myself putting other things before Him, as if those things even equal up to Him... gotta keep reminding myself without Him, I wouldn't be where I'm a right at this moment... I gotta break away from the "Imma start giving Him His time, but let me finish this thing first", mindset that I have going... the devil sure knows how to distract us from GOD... he knows the right things to put in place that will detour us from seeking a better relationship with GOD... but I know this is a must...
Before I can have a sound relationship with someone else... I must establish and keep my relationship with Him... how am I supposed to make time for someone else if I can't even make time for Him... sad part about it is, that He's always got time for me... I must say though I am really grateful for that but this isn't the way its supposed to be... its supposed to be a 2 way relationship of give and take, not the take take take path that I'm currently in... I need to get right with Him... gotta make Him focus numero uno... because again without Him there is no me and I would NOT have made it this far.... so i gotta stop... STOP S L A C K I N G!

Yea I def agree with you on this. I think a lot of us take God for granted and just forget about him all together, which is really sad becasue he always has our back. I was listening to a sermon one time and the preacher said "could you imagine if God forgot about us for a second??" and I'm like wow I would probably be dead if thats the case. He doesnt take a day off AT ALL to protect us, but we vacation from him and I know it hurts him so bad its like bringing him back to the cross again, BUT the good thing actually the GREAT thing is he's always waiting for us with open arms no matter how much we screw up. He loves us unconditionally and I find peace in knowing that I can always find refuse in him. So Mr. C.E.B.M I completely agree with you we all need to stop slackin and if you decide you wanna have a realtionship with sum1 just make sure they have the same goal in mind and are headed in the right direction and dont hesitate to help them either cuz like you said God puts ppl in your life for many different reasons and you never know if that reason is to bring that sum1 closer to God :-)
ReplyDeleteI am in the same boat. I acknowledge His mercy and grace and love towards us, yet I know in my heart I can do more. More to grow closer to Him
ReplyDeleteI always feel a way when I consider the amount of time I spend getting to know the people in my life vs the amount of time I spend getting to know the author and finisher of our faith. Luckily its aint over till God says its over. He loves us so much that He extends numberous amounts of chances for us to get our lives in order. I just pray that stay encouraged.
I often think that if we have less distractions (technology, seeking worldly wealth and accomplishments etc.) and focus on the things that are pure, just,true and good etc it would be easier. Thats why we should fellowship with like minded individuals who share a common goal for salvation. this should be coupled with the earnest devotion to being a discle and worshiper..
I guess Im rambling but all of this is to say that even though we slack, the fact that we want to draw closer to God is a sign that there is still hope for our salvation.
