What Was I Thinking?

.There are moments when our vision is the clearest; we quickly admit that most of our lives are spent on us and not on Him. We may even admit that most of the time we invest in corporate worship is really spend dealing with our issues and not with His. God really doesn’t mind us dealing with our issues in church, The Lord cares about every detail of our lives. However, I think He wonders when we will return to our first priority and purpose in life—loving and pleasing Him.

Colossians 3:1-3 Where Paul commands us to seek the things above and set our affections above, where Christ sits at the right hand of God.                                    1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.
2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
                                               

Prayer; Lord, forgive me for setting my sights on what is “low and lifted up” instead of raising them to view You, high and lifted up. I am hungry for You, and now I see that the only way to experience Your manifest presence is to wait upon You and put Your desire for true worship first. I’m determined to wait upon You and pursue You until I find You.
