It'll only take a minute, to tell you everything
Be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse I love you
Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense
Never let your prayin' knees get lazy
And love like crazy"
- Love Like Crazy, Lee Brice
So I like country music. Well some of it; this song happens to be one of them. The chorus of the song really strikes me, because not only does it apply to our relationships, but it applies to everything in life. In how we deal with other people, things, and above all, God. We cannot forget to pray. If we forget to pray, nothing will come to us. Remember, ask and ye shall receive? It's true. Although God knows what we are going to ask for before we even ask, He will not just give it to us, until we ask that is.
Matthew 7:7-8 (KJV) - Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Matthew 21:22 (KJV) - And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Remember, if we forget to include God in our decisions, there is no way our decision will be the right one... But if we ask God to show us His path for us, we will receive His guidance and He shall grant us the peace of mind to know that we are making the right decision. Same goes for any other request we need - whether it be a job, a place to live, money to make ends meet, anything. If we ask, God shall provide.
Philippians 4:19 (KJV) - But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Blessings in Christ,
Thank you for this post Chelsea!! It was really an encouragment to make sure I involve God in everything I do! I too like that song and some country music. Thanks for the post!
