Give God Your Best

Happy New Year!

Lots of us start the new year off with new rituals and changes...and about 1/3 of them survive. One of the rituals I'm sticking with is reading Joyce Meyer's "New Day, New You" all the way through. It's one of those one-page-a-day-for-a-year books. So far, it's been pretty good, but the passage I read today really stirred something up in me.

The following is from the book; I did not write it!

"God needs to be your priority in everything you do. From getting dressed to setting your schedule, you can ask God for wisdom to make choices that will glorify Him. You can intermingle your time with God into everything you do to such a degree that you can pray without ceasing (pray your way through the day). As you become aware of His presence, it will not be possible to compartmentalize God or separate secular activities from sacred ones. Even ordinary events will become sacred because He is involved in them."

Isn't that awesome? There are plenty of other tidbits of wisdom in the book. Check it out and let me know what you think! Find "The Garbage Quilt" on Facebook, Twitter (@garbagequilt), or email your comments here : thegarbagequilt@gmail.com.

I hope this lesson blessed you...have a happy new year!
