Maybe its just human nature to complain about having to get out of bed instead of thanking God for another glorious day that He made. I guess the less ruled I become by human nature, and the more ruled by God nature the better.

For where your treasure is, there you will find your heart. I have found that the important things were always those that I considered treasure. the realty was, I put my trust in corruptible things and I had forsaken the very element of life which moth and rust cannot corrupt. My goal is to forsake all and find Jesus........He's that 1 He's that precious stone He's that cool drink of water on a hot day He's the peace in time of storm He's the author, developer, and finisher..... In Him the weary find rest, Paul could say that he was content in all things becasue he found the secret to life........................."It is truly all in HIM!" Find the shepherd, latch onto him and do not let him go, sell all that you have, every emotional investment in order to purchase that field, the place in which he dwells.......Selah! There is only 1

There has only been 1

There will always be, just 1

Selah!

Is it helpful? Is it good? Or is it just stuff? I know that when I did that analysis on my own life, I realized that a lot of what I did was just keeping others satisfied. Not happy or fulfilled, just satisfied. Enough for them to leave me alone. Some of that is life -- it's not realistic to expect every enterprise to be earth-shattering in importance. But that thought made me refocus and begin to produce more things that would benefit the kingdom of God . . . articles on The New Free Thinkers, for instance.
