God is THE SOURCE!!! Nothing else!!!

9/11/15 Kevin, the #1 goal of your life is to have God as your source and for you to live out of that source.  Not just in your quiet time.. but a constant awareness.  (the source of your happiness has been this..and the cause of your heartbreak has been when you have neglected this)

One of my life verses is this:
Jeremiah 17 starting in verse 5

“Cursed is the one who trusts in man,
    who draws strength from mere flesh
    and whose heart turns away from the Lord.
6 That person will be like a bush in the wastelands;
    they will not see prosperity when it comes.
They will dwell in the parched places of the desert,
    in a salt land where no one lives.
7 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
    whose confidence is in him.
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water
    that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
    its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
    and never fails to bear fruit.”
9 The heart is deceitful above all things
    and beyond cure.
    Who can understand it?

Blessings Unaware

Do you ever have those times where someone does something for you totally unexpected and it makes you feel really special?  Perhaps a phone call, a meal, a small little present.  Stop and think about a recent time someone did that for you.

Now.. we might be totally unaware of it because it happens so frequently... But God is continually doing things for us... a lot of times unnoticed.  Take a second and acknowledge those little (and big) things that God does for you just because He loves you.
