Psalm 107:21 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.
When things go wrong, we focus on all the bad things which surround us.
When things go well, we focus on the things which go wrong around us!
God wants us to focus on what He can and does do for us instead...
Psalm 51:17 My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.
How many times have you been too afraid to come forward and admit to doing wrong?
How many of those times have been with God? Hint, He knows already!
Be honest. Be open. Be humble. Admit it!
Psalm 81:16 But you would be fed with the finest of wheat; with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.
One of the things God wants to be able to do for us is to show us how much He loves us…
We will only begin to understand this if we spend more time with Him instead of running away from Him!
Give God a chance to explain how much He loves you!
Psalm 95:11 So I declared on oath in my anger, “They shall never enter my rest.”
What happens to you when someone is continually ignoring you?
What happens when someone is continually annoying you?
Do you get angry and retaliate, or do you try to continue ignoring them?
What do you think God is going to do when you continue to ignore or annoy Him?
