And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. (Hebrews 11:6 NIV84)
What is the opposite of having faith?
Going through the motions of a "faith filled person" but not believing He is real or even seeking to know If He is real.
Being sure of what we hope for is part of our faith. By faith we know He is real and will reward those who seek Him. Like so many in the Bible - listed in this faith chapter - Hebrews 11 - we see the testimony of faith filled lives.
Deuteronomy 6:5-9 "Love the Lord our God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you SIT at home and when you WALK along the road, when you LIE DOWN and when you GET UP. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates."

Devin - Psalms 19:1
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. (Psalms 19:1 NIV84)
Devin read a beautiful description of the galaxies , heavens and all of God's creation. The heavens tell the glory of God.
What do you see everyday that reminds you of God?
Liv - the sunrise and sunset
Kadin - the trees
Gina - feeling the wind at my face
Tim - sitting in the woods - considering how all of this was made and it works together!
Dev - the distance of the sun to earth, it's just right! (130,000 horsepower!!)
We need to watch the Indescribable video again by Louie Giglio!!!
Amazing creation, amazing creator!!!

Daddy - Psalm 26:8
I love the house where you live, O Lord , the place where your glory dwells. (Psalms 26:8 NIV84)
Being in an intimate relationship with God is most important. A spirit filled man desire is to be close to God always. Like David, we desire to be close to God and now that comes from Christ in me. That's it. Jesus. Out of his residence in us comes good, right relationships.

Off to the races!!!
So , it happens once in a while when we just run late! Liv had an ortho appointment at 7:30 so everyone was out the door by 7:15! Our devotion today was a quick circle up in the laundry room with coats on as daddy lead us in a prayer to start the day!
God goes with us we know!
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. (Psalms 23:1-3 NIV84)

Devin - Revelation 22:12,13
“Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. (Revelation 22:12, 13 NIV84)
This verse reminds us who is in charge! We have presidents, CEOs, teachers, mangers, pastors and leaders in our lives but in the end He trumps them all !!!!
We are thankful that our God is coming soon and that He will make things right!!! We can trust Him with everything!!!

Kadin - Ephesians 4:32
Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. (Ephesians 4:32 NIV84)
Kadin said we must forgive others like God forgave us. Who do we think we are to hold bitterness and in forgiveness against our brothers when Christ forgave us for all the dumb stuff we've done. At church last Sunday we sang a song called Forgiveness by Matthew West. It is not always easy but it frees us in the process!!!
Thank Jesus!
