When I read this the thought the came to my mind was this.<BR/><BR/>Those of us who live in America are living in a fast paced society. We want our food fast, our coffee fast, our computers fast..the list goes on and on. Even in our churches today we've got our services timed to one hour and our quiet time down to 15 minutes. I myself am guilty of this very process. And I wonder how many times in my haste to spend time with God have I missed His promises to me. I may be going through the practice of spending time with God, but am I really devoting my heart and mind to the pursuit of knowing Him more deeply.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for reminding me to stop and take time for God. My resolution for this year will be to make my times with God quality rather than breezing through. In prayer.<BR/><BR/>In His Grip,<BR/>JennaJMH85https://www.blogger.com/profile/05265778859270576840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080645671114720785.post-37463668599835182532009-01-11T15:56:00.000-08:002009-01-11T15:56:00.000-08:00Bobby, I love this, especially the God cup.

My best memories are times when I've really paid attention to God and He has amazed me. <BR/><BR/>The kids and I thought of you this week, as we visited the Jelly Belly Factory for a school field trip. We decided to share our joy of Jelly Belly's with you. Jackie's sending them soon. Hope you enjoy!! <BR/><BR/>Church today was awesome - I had to park on the street, so many cars. :) It doesn't really matter whether there are a few or a lot of people, we always go to worship and celebrate, but it is kind of invigorating when there's a crowd. <BR/><BR/>We're talking about finances. How to have "Financial Sanity". Great message. The key verse I Tim. 6:6 "Godliness with contentment is great gain." We talked about how the root of many of our financial struggles is not being content with what we have or what we can afford, so we live above our means, which in the end makes us miserable. We talked about the 80/10/10 plan. Living on 80 percent, giving 10 percent, and saving 10 percent. Personally, we've learned to live on 90 percent, plus some overage with debt. But learning to save 10 percent would be really exciting to me. That's one goal I would like to get to. I'm looking forward to all that God has for us as we look to Him and how to manage the finances that all belong to Him anyway. There is blessing in obedience, and peace comes when we are living according to His ways. <BR/><BR/>May God bless you this week, as you focus in on Him and live for His glory. <BR/><BR/>Praying for you, brother!<BR/><BR/>In Him, <BR/><BR/>VallieValliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13044209233156142664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080645671114720785.post-34560031433434500152009-01-10T17:02:00.000-08:002009-01-10T17:02:00.000-08:00Hey Bobby!
