thoughts about God

What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.

Dear God. The most important thing about me is not my job or my family. It’s not ministry or how much I get done in a day. It’s not how many friends I have or whether people like what I do.

The most important thing about me is what I think about you.

And I admit, I get screwed up in my thinking. Because I am a mess. I am ungrateful, unkind, self-centered, and endlessly distracted.

Meanwhile, you are HOLY. Perfect. In need of nothing. Including me. And yet you seek me. Love me. Chase me. Heal me.

Oh, thank you dear God. Keep my thoughts right about you.
