Tough Reminder

“Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world - the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does - comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.” 1John 2:15-17

As I end the week, I’m reminded to “fix my thoughts on Jesus” Hebrews 3:1, and that the world really doesn’t have anything to offer me of any eternal value; I’ve been distracted this week in terms of focus, but by the grace of God, He has kept me from going crazy and picked me up when I’ve fallen down.

Thank You Almighty God for Your love and faithfulness!

Restless

Funny how a few days can make a difference; how a new week can change the person you were the last. I have been neglecting my quiet time with God, and yes I’m regretting it. It seems to be a bad cycle that comes up around mid-term exams and final exams; I get distracted with other things and neglect both God’s word and school work.

“Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because he who has suffered in his body is done with sin. As a result, he does not live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God. For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do - living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry.” 1Peter 4:1-3

I am tired and restless, but one thing is for sure: “God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.” 1Corinthians 1:9

I’m restless, I’m restless

‘Til I rest in You, ‘til I rest in You

I’m restless, I’m restless

‘Til I rest in You, ‘til I rest in You
