another
thing that will help us with our conflicts is to grow closer to GOD. james 4.8 (nlt), come close to GOD, and
GOD will come close to you.
listen,
the more time you spend alone with GOD, the better you will get along with
other people. count on it! when the argument level rises in our marriage
it means that someone is not spending time with the LORD. it’s that simple. grow closer to GOD.
isaiah
26.3 (nlt), YOU (GOD) will keep in perfect peace all who trust in
YOU, all whose thoughts are fixed on YOU!
when
you spend time with the LORD, your turn your thoughts to HIM, then you get
along better with others because HE keeps perfect peace in your heart and you’re
not as irritable.
have
you noticed some people only draw close to GOD when they’re in trouble? they only pray when they have a need. you need to spend time with HIM, bible study,
sunday, daily quiet time – make times for these things.
you
say you’re too busy? then maybe you’re
too busy. maybe you need to cut some
things out of your schedule to make more time to spend time with the LORD. the more you spend time with the LORD, the
more you’re going to enjoy the rest of your time. it will be more productive, more
beneficial. you’ll get along better with
others, have fewer arguments because you’re spending time with GOD.
draw
closer to GOD, HE’ll keep you in peace.
get up 15 minutes earlier each morning.
maybe start with the book of john, that’s what i am reading right now. read and pray and notice the difference in
your attitude and the relationships the rest of the day. i challenge you to do that.
the
conflict in your life is in direct proportion to the time you’re spending with GOD.
there
is a great promise here too. when you in
genuineness draw close to GOD, HE will come close to you. HE doesn’t back off, HE draws close to
you. when you move toward HIM, HE moves
toward you.
you
give in to GOD, get wise to satan, draw close to GOD.
just
a thought from the front porch…
