Some people think they give God an hour on Sunday and He should be happy with that. Others think He is a get-out-of- jail- free card like in Monopoly. The ones who have come to realize He is a constant companion have it all together. Without Him on board in our lives, we are quite useless for time and eternity.
Here’s how the hymn writer put it:
I need thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like thine
Can peace afford.
I need Thee, O I need thee;
Every hour I need Thee!
O bless me now, my Savior–
I come to Thee.
Isaiah 30:20-21
And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide himself anymore, but your eyes shall see your Teacher. And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.
Trouble comes in different forms to make us realize this journey is not possible without Him.
Give it some thought.
