Sunday Scripture
and a
Song
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
Matthew 6:33
Why is it that we try to figure things out on our own, when our Counsel is only a prayer away?
Is it because of the free will God has given us, the choice to make our own decisions?
Whenever I think I know what I should do, I should pause and ask my Counselor.
I should try to discern if what I am choosing is God's will for me.
And then, I need to really listen and believe it.
Most times, I want to call the shots. I want to make my choices, and they're not always the ones my Lord wants for me. Usually, I pay the price, and it's never pleasant.
Prayer: Lord, help me to hear Your Voice, to discern Your Will, and to follow the path You've laid out for me (rather than charging ahead on my own). Thank you for loving me, and for always being there, even when I mess up. I am forever grateful to know you are near. Amen.

Music is a beautiful way to worship God.
If you've ever wondered why we worship, here's a quote I came across that sums it up pretty well: "Worship is a way of gladly reflecting back to God the radiance of His worth." ~ John Piper, preacher and author
