Hi everyone
Lately God has placed it on my heart so much to remind me that it is not about me but it is about him.
Paul said in Corinthians "who ever glories let him glory in the Lord"
This is such a powerful verse to me so many times when we are apart of something great people congradulate us on a job well done and we say thanks I worked really hard to make it happen. This may be true but we need to remember that without christ we could do nothing he is our source for everything. When people say job well done we need to automatically say praise god Praise god and give all the glory to him for he is the reason that it we were able to get it done.
I heard a quote one time I found to be very true, "God doesn't need us he wants us" God is going to change the world and he just wants to know if we want to come along for the ride.
So lets just remember that serving in the kingdom of heaven is a privaledge and not a right.
John: 15.16 Says "you did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear much fruit"
Just something to think about amen :)

Good stuff Ken! I totally can relate...God has been really reminding me of that very thing as recently as today. As the Psalmist put it so well in chapter 103:14 -
"For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust."
I pray that often, usually to remind myself that I am dust and that I need God's Spirit breathed into me in to live! Just to rememeber that we are the clay, and He is the potter...and to stay moldable and pliable in His hands! It is so easy to get focused on ourselves and what we can do in our strength, instead of remembering that His grace is sufficient and that its in our weakness that His strength is made perfect! Praise God for that! He gets all the glory!
By the way, for those of you who don't know Ken, he's one of our awesome brothers that we met at Believer's Church in Wisconsin while we were there for Nightmare. Praise Jesus for meeting more members of His Family! :)
