I am so thankful for a God who is not changing. Lord, You are my constant, never changing King. I need You now. My spirit is so low. I feel inside that it is a good and natural place to be but I hurt. I haven't been able to get this stupid business second in my mind to You. I want to put Your kingdom before everything else in my life. I have failed in that. I have had thoughts of growth and not waited on You to work.
Give me patience. Help me find You and Your plan in this mess of a business. I need You.
Thank You for Your goodness Father. I am grateful for all that You do. Forgive me for all that I overlook that You bless me with.
May You speak to me through Your word.
Matthew 4: 17
From that time on Jesus began to preach, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near."
Matthew 4: 19
"Come, follow me", Jesus said," and I will make you fishers of men."
Matthew 28: 18
"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Father, You have called me to call people to repent. You have called me to follow You so that I will be a fisher of men. You have called me to make disciples, baptize them, and teach them how to live. Help me see the next step. Help me know if this business helps me do that or not. I want to throw off anything that slows me down so that I can run this race as fast as I can. Lord, may I be so busy about Your work that I have trouble finding margin for the things of this world: business, play, entertainment, work, vacations. Give me a direction and a clear purpose. Help me to race to Your goals. Help me not get distracted by all that the world says I need to get done or do. May I define my responsibilities by Your kingdom and not by this worlds pressures.
I love You
Give me Your Power and Clarity
Jason
