Humble Thyself Posted: 08 Jun 2011 07:40 AM PDT There are times that I feel myself drifting from God. Not because of Him, but because of me. I am always hungry for more knowledge of Him, but at times it takes a good deal of effort to get away from my laptop and read a little Scripture. We can’t really experience the true essence of God with the five senses that we are so used to experiencing the world with. Man is so accustomed to the world that he understands that even Peter, who walked right beside Jesus for years, still had a hard time putting his entire faith in Him. At some point, we need to get over ourselves and give Him everything He deserves. Let’s take a second today and remember who our God is. God should in no way be put on the outskirts of our living. God will not force obedience on us, and we take that for granted. He requires that we seek, love, and obey Him daily so that we may experience all of the love, joy, and blessings that He provides. I cannot take away from God, but He can take away from me. How humbling is that? “A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, ‘darkness’ on the walls of his cell.” – C.S. Lewis Filed under: Daily Life
