What do we mean when we tell God "All I need is you"?
Do you we really mean...
"God I need you and some money and then I'm prepared to go wherever you take me"
or "I can do anything with you and qualifications"
or whatabout "I can go anywhere and speak your truth, just give me better public speaking skills first"
how many times have we told God "I will follow you Lord, just let me do this first" (let me go bury my father)
we always find some excuse ...
But being relient on God nullifies our excuses for being inadequate for the job.
We will always be inadequate unless we rely soley on the One who is so much more than adequate!
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"
Phil 4:13
God all I need is you

God speaks
I'm so blessed everytime that God speaks to me ... and I'm even more blessed when i actually listen :)
I was in church listening to a great sermon ... and though not directly related to what the preacher said, the Holy Spirit stirred in me and challenged with a simple statement
"Life is too short, to live for yourself"
People say to me from time to time, "why would you give up so much to do what you do"
but now I realize that I should be asking them "why would you give up so much to settle for 2nd best"
