God wants to be involved in your decisions. He wants to be involved in your parenting. He wants to be involved in who you're dating. He wants to be involved in your business decisions. He wants to be involved in your finances. He wants to live a life with you.
#MarriageMonday Why is it so hard for us to sometimes ask for what we need? I don’t know if it’s embarrassment, pride, fear my request will be denied, or wishing that my mind can be read. The simplest way to get our needs met is just to ask for them, without manipulation.
Jesus never expected us to fulfill his commandments on our own. He gave us his Spirit, and so we have power that has enabled us to fulfill the commands of Jesus, which is loving God and loving our neighbors the way that God has loved us.

Allow yourself to receive the reminder of heaven that God is going to complete it all. He's constantly with you and looking over your life, your past, your present, and your future. Take an exhale. You can rest in that.
Could we live our lives in such a way that we could replace our worrying with wonder? Anytime our brain goes to worry, what if we stopped and said, no, I'm going to be in awe of something right now!
Worry robs us from the beautiful plan that God has for us. And God wants us out. He wants us doing acts of compassion. He wants us loving our neighbor. He wants us thinking about other people.
"But make sure that you don't get so absorbed and exhausted in taking care of all of your day to day obligations that you lose track of time, doze off, oblivious to God. The night is over. Dawn is about to break. Be up and awake to what God is doing." Romans 13:11
