I had a question asked of me yesterday that quickened my heart and left me wondering. I'm still wondering for that matter. It actually makes me a little sick to my stomach to think that I even have to question myself and admit this out loud. But here goes . . . . . do I worship God out of obligation or desire? We are studying 1 Kings on Wednesday mornings and King Solomon is the main character. He's the son of David (known for being the man after God's own heart). Solomon loved God and worshiped Him. In fact, Solomon was allowed to build God's temple and became one of the wisest richest rulers of all time. I Kings says, 5 Three times a year Solomon sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings on the altar he had built for the Lord , burning incense before the Lord along with them, and so fulfilled the temple obligations. I'm thinking to myself, WOW, this guy's doing it all right - he's following exactly what he shoul
Eph 1:18 & 19 I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and His incomparably great power for us who believe. Together, through God's Word, we will open the eyes of our hearts to God's perfect plan for our lives.
