He Is ALL that I Need

I spend time in my journal, reading great Christian books, and trying to catch what God is at work doing in my life. I try to listen intently on what the spiritual leaders say or preach; I listen closely to what teammates say.

I get confused with all of the new ways I am seeing God. And at times need to reflect just with God’s word and say God what are you speaking to me?                                                      (our transportation to caves- we weren’t sure if we were gonna make it)
                                                                                              

On the H squad it seems someone is continually fasting from food. And I find myself challenged by this method of truly sacrificing something to dedicate more time to prayer and focusing on God. Sunday morning I felt God putting on my heart to fast from any literature except the Bible.

I later had a conversation with my brother and he reminded me of this simple truth that so easily I forget. He told me to: 1. Listen to what God tells me and 2. to check everything with Scripture. Because we ARE ALL human. Sometimes the spiritual leaders I look up to have to be taken down from the pedestals I put them on, and the Jesus that I so admire in them needs to be put on the highest pedestal.

As much as I love Christian books, pastors, authors, and online sermons I know God’s word is unchangeable and HIS truths remain the same. AND I need to cling to the every words that are in the BIBLE, not that come out of people’s mouths.
