I Used to Get My Direction from Television

Our Initiative Will NEVER Be Enough!

Receiving and responding to God’s direction for our faith walk—from the small decisions to the life-changing choices–takes INITIATIVE, of course. But it takes more than that…much more—it is IMPERATIVE that we connect with God on a regular basis.

Missing that step means we will be forced to find perspective and direction from somewhere else—friends, television, or online bloggers and so-called experts whose advice resides in the digital cloud.

Me? I’m going with God.

I approach it by asking for God’s reminder that my initiative is not and will never be enough. That just wanting to be close to him will always fall short. That thinking I have connected with God does not mean there is a connection. The goal is to have God show me when I have truly connected and nudge me when I have not.

Have you connected with God today?

Hey, like this? Why not share it with a buddy?
