Don't Forget God Today

Don’t Forget God Today

“No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead he puts it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.”
Luke 11;33

One of the hardest things in the world is to deal with all that life throws at you each day, and in the midst of all that, try to be productive for the Lord. You have work, school, family, health issues, financial issues and many other distractions that you have to fight, hobbies and things you enjoy doing, on top of the day to day trials and tribulations we all have to face in this dark, sin-filled world. As each day unfolds, and those unexpected situations arise, it is so easy to get bogged down and expend so much energy fighting problems, that we simply want to get home and shut the world out. If you are in this situation, this is exactly the position that Satan wants you to be in. I want to encourage you today to not let Satan keep you from serving God. God has a plan and a purpose for your life. He has work for you to do, and serving Him is not an option, it is a commandment. No matter how challenged you may be in your daily life, make the time and effort each day to find ways to serve the Lord. There are endless ways you can serve Him at your local church. There are many ministries that need people to help them. Most people can serve God just in the course of their daily life, by sharing Christ with the people who cross their path each day. God will open the right doors, and guide you. It is your responsibility to make serving Him each day a priority in your life. My word for you today, is that at the end of your journey through life, the only thing that will matter is your relationship with Jesus, and how you have served Him.
