Pleasing God

A thought from my study of Nehemiah 9:1-15 is that we should order our day with God’s help because He has the answers for us. Like the Israelites, we should praise God and pray for the day ahead. I found this video that will hopefully give a lift for your day: Lifesong – Casting Crowns. God Bless :)

Going to God builds momentum for each day so we are in a position to run the day and not let the day run us. Instead, putting things into order will allow small things to lead to big things and doors will be opened.

About Mark Shields

Mark volunteers as a member of the media ministry at his church and runs the 10:50 worship service computer. A few years ago, he started an on-line Bible study guide called “This Day with God Devotional”. He uses this as a tool in his journey through the Bible. We live in a very busy world with busy schedules so this tool has helped him continue with daily Bible reading and study. You’re invited to join him on this journey or check in every so often to read his thoughts.

    Love that line: I want to sign your name to the end of this day… We have a daily walk with Christ that far surpasses all others regardless of what happens that day.

      One idea I heard in a sermon one time is at the end of each day to think about the things that happened; the lessons and blessings. To pray for the next day and for help in bringing glory to God in all we do. God bless your day Gracie.

  2. Thank you for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do a little research about this. We got a grab a book from our local library but I think I learned more from this post. I am very glad to see such great information being shared freely out there.
