I love the title of our current series at Bell Creek! I am also being heartily challenged by it's content.
I have been feeling the effects of doing things under my own strength recently, I need to change. I need to reset my priorities. I know that our ministry needs to flow from the overflow of our relationship with the Lord but sometimes, perhaps in the face of a hectic schedule or some outside circumstance, especially when there is a certain structure to follow or a grove to fall in to, it is possible to just go through the motions. I don't want to be found going through the motions we can't afford it!
The Lord wants our whole hearts!
I have started and stopped and started again reading through the Bible this year. I know that I am not faithful to follow through with so many of my stated intentions.
I know that I must, rather, focus on drawing nearer to the Lord. It isn't about the rules that I follow but rather the evidences of my conduct which are revealing my desire!
Lord, be my desire this week!
Take Care,
Grant
