Just Ask God and Do What He Says...
We like to complicate things.
God made things SIMPLE.
Imagine 2 teenage best friends at a fairground.
They're excited about the rides, the food, the lights.
They're always joined at the hip and do everything together.
As they go from one ride to another they're talking about how fun it was,
As they get in line for a snack, they're discussing what each other wants,
When one sees something funny they point it out to the other and laugh together.
They're basically operating as one harmonious unit.
That's what God wants with US.
He wants us to be so synced up with Him,
So in tune with Him,
That we can read each others' minds.
We're actually designed for that.
"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me"
One of the things Jesus opened up for us by dying on the cross is the ability to have close INTIMATE relationship with Jesus. It's supposed to be the most heartwarming, fulfilling and meaningful relationship, better than ANYTHING we can have with another human being.
Whatever you do,
Whatever idea you have,
Wherever you want to go,
You want to do it WITH Jesus.
This includes business, family and life.
Here are some examples:
God as your BEST FRIEND...
If you're thinking about what movie to watch,
Just ask God, and see what He says,
He is your best friend.
If you're thinking about what to eat,
Just ask God, and see what He says,
He has the best selection.
God as your RELATIONSHIP COACH...
If you're wondering what to get your spouse for your anniversary,
Just ask God, and do what He says.
He has the best ideas.
If you're wondering what to do after a big fight with your spouse,
Just ask God, and do what He says.
He has the best relationship advice.
God as your BUSINESS CONSULTANT,
If you're wondering if you should engage in an business opportunity,
Just ask God, and do what He says.
He is the best business consultant in the universe.
If you're wondering if you should spend money on something,
Just ask God, and do what He says.
He is the best financial advisor.
God as LORD AND SAVIOR,
If you're spiritual life seems dim and you need some fire,
Just ask God for the fire.
He is a consuming fire.
If you have big life decisions and you want to make the right choice,
Just ask God and do what He says.
He is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end.
"Dear Heavenly Father,
I need Your help in SEEKING You,
As I often forget about You,
And How wonderful You are.
You're the greatest business person,
The most genious marketer,
The most brilliant strategist,
Help me to quit looking elsewhere instead of You.
Help me to truly VALUE what You have to say,
Help me to ASK You questions about every detail,
May every word from You would be PRECIOUS as gold.
Help me realize Your plans are a million times better than mine,
Help me to have no interest in my plans,
But ONLY desire Yours.
Change my heart to WANT You more,
Change my heart to THIRST for You more,
Change my heart to SEEK You first in ALL that I do.
Help me simply...
Ask You and do what You say,
And experience the JOY, PEACE and LOVE that comes from it.
Thank You for ALL that You have done,
Thank You for Your immeasurable sacrifice,
May I have eyes for You and ONLY You.
In Jesus name, Amen."
Cheers to making life SIMPLE by just ASKING God and DOING what He says. ^_^
