Getting the most from God

[tg2009]

To delight in the Lord requires a significant investment of time with him.

Spending time with the Lord requires serious time focused in and upon God’s Word.

As we walk with God-as we delight in Him to the point of redirecting our lives to follow Him-He gives us these desires of our heart.

Amen to that! There are even times I just let the computer read scripture while I’m doing something else; other times I might focus on Lectio Divina which offer deep levels of intimacy with the scripture! Oh gosh, it’s All Good!

As we walk with God-as we delight in Him to the point of redirecting our lives to follow Him-He gives us these desires of our heart.

You are right about that! He has given me riches beyond what I could ever have hoped for, and every day – nearly every moment – gets better than the last! Praise to the Lord!

I came to understand that God gives the greatest rewards to those who are not specifically chasing after them. Moreover, the fulfillment of God’s promises may not look exactly like what one might have expected but they will likely be far greater than one could have ever imaged.

May God open our eyes to see as He sees, to act as He acts. Amen Amen.

I’ve never heard that, but maybe the key is the word “chasing.”

I find it more valuable to invite Him to come to me. I can never see or perceive Him as He is, so if I were looking for Him in His glory I wouldn’t recognize Him.

But He makes it easier. He comes disguised as all the people in our lives. If we serve others, we will be the leaders in the kingdom.

Luke 22:26b-27
Rather, let the greatest among you be as the youngest, and the leader as the servant. For who is greater: the one seated at table or the one who serves? Is it not the one seated at table? I am among you as the one who serves.

Moreover, the fulfillment of God’s promises may not look exactly like what one might have expected but they will likely be far greater than one could have ever imaged.

May God open our eyes to see as He sees, to act as He acts. Amen Amen.
