My math notebook has various notes that have gone through pieces of paper and they are all about Jesus:). I look at my notebook and I see the words Jesus, God, faithful, good, saves, blessed, plans, and forever!! There are so many words that can cheer my day up! Not to be legalistic or have a checklist but I think it is so important to spend more time with God in a day than say my appearance or grades. There are some days where we are just really busy and you don't have as much time as you would like but what is important is that Jesus is with you in every step! You feel Him in your heart and mind and He is leading every action you take. It's important that even if we have a busy day that that does not draw us away from God. But that we can be content in Him no matter what happens. He is always there for us and we should always be there ready. In Jeremiah 18 this morning I was reading about the potter. He said, “Can I not do with you, Israel, as this potter does?” declares the Lord. “Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are you in my hand, Israel. (Jeremiah 18:6 NIV). We are the clay and He is the potter. This is one of my most favorite truths of the bible. But what has to happen to the clay first for God to use it? Well it can't be molded and set in stone and hard. It HAS to be broken. God can use us when we our broken. I feel free from sin that I struggled with for long amounts of time and that always me to be so much more free to love God and spend quality time with Him! I have been able to read the Word more and just more time to actually connect with Him while I am praying! It has done my spirit so well. God works when we are humbled and submitted to Him! He is so great!
I don't want there to just be scriptures hung up in my room or to go to church on Sundays or have a bible verse to be on my phone. I want God to be dwelling inside of me and working constantly! I want my life to point others to Him. I want to be humbled and repent from my sin so I can lead others to Christ. God will use me if I am loving Him right!
