Ok, so I am in this parenting class, Shepherding a Child's Heart, and we talked yesterday about the purpose of our lives, which is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. So, my question for thought is are we fulfilling our purpose? Does everything I do glorify God? I'm afraid I have to confess I do not always glorify God. Not that I don't want to, but sometimes I just don't think about it enough or even just want to do things my way! Of course, this is not right. We need to be more conscious of our choices whether it is our thoughts, words or actions. There is only one way I could ever hope to do this. The answer is PRAYER! This isn't a new thought, but just a reminder. Jesus is waiting and living to intercede for us whatever our situation and wherever we are, so maybe I should include Him in everything always.
Verse for the week:
Hebrews 7:24-25 Because Jesus lives forever, He has a permanent priesthood. Therefore He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him, because He always lives to intercede for them(us!).
What an awesome thought!

Great post Tricia. If I keep my eyes on the goal it all seems so easy, but when I get distracted with all the details of life they seem to point me off in some other direction. Thats when the murmuring and complaining start.
Thanks for the food for thought.
hey crazy mama!
I love that you're my new blog-sista.
thanks for the the reminder that we should always, in everything be glorifying to God.
I was thinking about JH and the people coming through and what if we were seen in an ungodly light by these people?
That would hinder the message, don't you think?
