2 Chronicles 15:21

"The Lord is with you when you are with him. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will forsake you."

I was reading this verse today and it just popped out to me. I think we spend too less time seeking God, and too much time complaining. We are clouded by the worldly things around us. We should find time to seek Him. It says clearly in the Bible that He is with us when we are with Him, and He will be found if we try to find Him. Many times we tend to get off track and just know to complain about what life throws at us. We should put God first. Seek hHim, he will be found by you, but if you forsake Him, he will forsake you!!!!

1 Chronicles 29:14

"But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand."

I was actually reading this passage today and I suddenly realized that everything I've given God actually weren't mine to begin with. I think nowadays we think too much about "oh I gave so much up for God, for church already...why do they ask so much of me?" We never thought of that without God, we're may not even be able to do some things. For a fact I know, if I didn't go to church, I would probably not be able to play piano so well in such a short period of time. I think sometimes we need to really humble ourselves and think about how much God has given us. All we're doing is showing the world how great is He! And we should do our best to glorify Him. A lot of things contribute to who I am, and God is definitely a big part of that.
