Matthew 6: 24a “No one can serve two masters; for
either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the
one and despise the other. & Matthew
22: 37 You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your
soul, and with all your mind.”
This is the second part to our question “Is God the
center of all we do?” Many times people
say things like “you are so consumed with talking about God, isn’t there any
other topic that interest you?” Yes, I
have other interesting topics I can talk to you about but I love to bring God
into the picture. It is natural for me
to talk about God and how I see the situation from a bible perspective.
It frustrates many people and it also irritates them,
they feel disconnected and angry with me at times.
Do you know what I am talking about? Are you able to relate to my thinking, I love
the LORD and it comes out in my conversations and I am constantly trying to
teach you something? So being friends
with me might frustrate you because I am seen as a freak and total
nut-case.
I want to take this time and encourage you to stay
focused and trust in God, He knows what is best for you. So hang in there and do not back down on
placing God first. If you are like me,
single-minded and totally devoted to God then you will find push-back from
people.
Prayer
Abba Father, You know that I am single-minded and that
I cannot always discuss matters of the world because I am not interested in
what’s happening in the world. I confess
that I feel in adequate when it comes to worldly matters but I feel comfortable
when speaking about You. Help me
understand people, and see them through Your eyes. Bless them and keep each one of them
safe. In Jesus Christ’s Name Amen
