Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful - Colossians 4:2

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful - Colossians 4:2

We need to remember that the only way we can talk to God is through prayer.
We also need to remember that prayer is not just to request for things and favors,
but also to give thanks for what we have received and the people in our lives.
We receive what we need when we need it
The timing may not be of our choosing and we may not realize until later on.
What ever it is we need to give thanks.

You just got to have faith

For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.
2 Corinthians 5:21 (NIV)

There are some qualities in life that we can afford to be without,
But without faith we are not even able to begin the Christian life,
Without faith we are not in a position to continue the Christian life,
And without faith – without trust, it is impossible to please God. Heb.11:6 

Just like the George Michael song....'Cause I gotta have faith...
When all things are going wrong
And everything seems dark
Things not going right
Friends diving out of sight

What you can't see
Doesn't mean it doesn't exist
What you can't hear 
Doesn't mean someone is not listening

Faith is trusting in what your senses cannot detected
Just that feeling in your heart
You just know
Who's taking care of you

Deuteronomy 6:12 be careful that you do not forget the Lord...

when you eat and are satisfied, be careful that you do not forget the Lord, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery

A kindly reminder I got today in my daily word e-mail.

Short but to the point, it is something that we take for granted sometimes ... well a lot of the times. There are so much we need to give thanks for. Gods blessings is always with us and is always generous.

1 Corinthians 3:18-19 Do not deceive yourselves

1 Corinthians 3:18-19
"Do not deceive yourselves. If any one of you thinks he is wise by the standards of this age, he should become a "fool" so that he may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God's sight."

Lest we think we are too smart...
we don't really know as much as we think we do.
Little knowledge is always dangerous especially if we do not have the full picture
How many of us truely see the whole picture
As our vision is restricted to our own little world
We need to be more open to learn more to understand more
And to know our own limitations.
Only God can truly see the whole picture
To understand the vastness of the universe.

Romans 8:29 It is only through His power that we can ever be set on a right path of being ...

We must never even hint that repentance is determined by what we believe is "right" outward behavior. Repentance is always a condition of the heart, and doing right in the eyes of God is only accomplished by allowing His Spirit to transform us into a "new creation" (2 Corinthians 5:17). It is only through His power that we can ever be set on a right path of being "conformed to the likeness of His Son" (Romans 8:29).

What we do is never enough. We can never do enough "good works" to redeem ourselves from all the wrongs and evil thoughts that we have done. Only God's grace can redeem us. Similarly we cannot resist all the temptations the world has to offer by ourselves. Only through God's guidance will we be able to move in the right direction and every day we need to look to him for his strength and guidance.
