ALL STIRRED UP

 
Hebrews 10:24
 
"And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works." ESV 
 
To consider something is to take time to focus on it and take time to really think about it. We are encouraged to consider our brothers and sisters in Christ and how we might get them motivated to be like Him.
 
Lord, forgive us for our lack of motivation and neglecting our responsibility to motivate others to do Your will. Help us to consider how to keep our faith kindled and to motivate others to do the same. In Your name we pray, Amen.

LIVING ON AUTO PILOT

 
Haggai 1:7
 
"Thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider your ways." ESV 
 
Living in a non-stop, hectic lifestyle, we find ourselves getting into a fixed pattern of daily living that requires little thought to those things we do day after day. We go on "auto pilot." In a way, we go through the motions of driving back and forth to work or school. We have our minds on a thousand other things while we go through our morning routine. What about our personal time with the Lord? Do we get into that auto pilot mode when we pray and read His Word? If so, we are not getting connected to the Lord at all. Consequently, we lack spiritual renewal and growth. Being deliberate in our time with God, or considering our ways, results in our growing in Christ and being effective in our witness for Him.
 
Lord, forgive us for mindlessly hurrying through our prayers and devotions. Put a strong desire in our hearts to give careful thought to the important things that cannot be accomplished when we are on "auto pilot." We ask this in Your name, Amen.
