God in Our Lives

Scripture reading

And my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

–Philippians 4:19

Thought of the Day

Dallas Willard wrote a pretty good book called, “THE DIVINE CONSPIRACY, REDISCOVERING OUR HIDDEN LIFE IN GOD”. In this book, Dr. Willard argues “compellingly
for the relevance of God in every aspect of our existence”. He reminds the reader of Paul’s teaching and preaching to the Greeks at Mars Hill as told in the seventeenth chapter of the book of Acts. Paul is trying to make his listeners understand that God is the God and that man was put here on earth by God to seek Him in all that we do. Paul told the people that in God we “live and move and exist”.
I love those three words. What if we all were committed to totally living in God and having our every movement be with God and our every existence be in God? What a difference it would make in our life and in the life of those around us and in the world. What a way to prepare for this pilgrimage we are on as believers as we journey towards Easter. What are we waiting for?

Prayer

Lord, You supply our need to live and move and exist. Amen.
