What drives your life?

You, LORD, give perfect peace to those who keep their purpose firm and put their trust in you. - Isa. 26:3 (Tev).

Without God, life has no purpose, and without purpose, life has no meaning. Without meaning, life has no significance or hope.

We were made to have meaning. This is why people try dubious methods, like astrology or psychics, to discover it. When life has meaning, you can bear almost anything; without it, nothing is bearable. 

Thoughts:

– How does your perspective about your own possessions need to change so that you can rejoice with others over their possessions?

– What do you think God wants you to fill your life with instead of possessions?

– Christians talk a lot about God giving them the desires of their heart. What kind of desires do you think God wants to give you?

JESUS

+ Ps. 39:30 “I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.”

+ According to the scriptures, the Devil is small enough to fit under our feet and God is big enough to fill both heaven and earth.

Lord, help me to be a forgiving person

Matthew 5:44-45  

44 But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 

45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

John 14:21  

Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.”
