2 Samuel 24; 1 Chronicles 21; Psalm 30; 1 Thessalonians 2

I really do
I really do believe
I really do believe You
I really do believe YOU are the answer

so now in every interaction keep that belief at the center ..how the hell do I do that??

2 Samuel 24: 24-25 But the king said to Araunah, "No. I've got to buy it from you for a good price; I'm not going to offer God, my God, sacrifices that are no sacrifice."
So David bought the threshing floor and the ox, paying out fifty shekels of silver. He built an altar to God there and sacrificed burnt offerings and peace offerings. God was moved by the prayers and that was the end of the disaster.


maybe IF I KNEW HOW to do it, it wouldn't then be about You??

1 Thess. 2:3-5 God tested us thoroughly to make sure we were qualified to be trusted with this Message. Be assured that when we speak to you we're not after crowd approval—only God approval. Since we've been put through that battery of tests, you're guaranteed that both we and the Message are free of error, mixed motives, or hidden agendas. We never used words to butter you up. No one knows that better than you. And God knows we never used words as a smoke screen to take advantage of you.

It HAS to be YOU because me...me I am after people's approval, the wanting to be liked thing is always a battle.....and now to live the rest of my life THANKING YOU for everything.....again how the heck do I do that......the point of the journey is to want what God wants more than anything....I want to want that Father...I do.
