The Fuel that Keeps Us Going

By: Logan Mims

   This week’s scripture deep dive comes from Proverbs 2:3-5. “ Indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as your forbidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.”

    God is all knowing, all powerful, and all mighty. We should seek God’s guidance in all that we do and long to know him and have him in our hearts. Everyone knows that we need food to live, you can’t live a good, healthy life without food, it’s just not possible. Being a christian is exactly like that if you think about it. We can’t live out a good, healthy relationship with God without fueling our bodies with God’s word. Being a follower of God and spreading his word gives us the gift of eternal life with him and there is nothing else we should want more than being with him forever. 

   Prayer: Dear God, thank you for the gift of simply being able to know you. Help us to long to follow you and show your love through us in all that we do. You are the fuel that keeps us going and I pray that we can use what you have given us to do what you put us on this earth to do. Amen.

A Place for You 

This week’s scripture deep dive comes from the book of John 14:1-3, “Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God; believe in me. My father‘s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I’m going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you also may be where I am.” 

This bible verse is saying that if you believe in God and live your life to serve Christ then God has a place saved for you in heaven with him. God does not want you to spend your life worrying about if he has a place for you in heaven, but just believe and trust in him and you shall have eternal life in heaven with him. 

Prayer: Dear God, thank you for the gift of eternal life and that we can always be with you no matter what the circumstance is. I pray that we can live through you every day and shine your light in all that we do. Amen.
