Priorities and Prayer


First of all, I haven't looked at this blog in two years, so it was soooo cool to jump on and see all the posts. I hope everyone's been great, and that God's been working in enormous ways in everyone's lives. I know He has in mine. Lately He's been asking me what my priorities are. My priorities can be seen in where I spend my time. And my conclusion was, that I haven't been spending enough time with Him. That is the only way to  gain that closeness and intimacy with God. If we aren't getting it in Him, that's when we stray off towards sin. Also, the power of prayer. It is insane how powerful prayer is, when we do it in complete faith, and we pray for something that benefits His kingdom. A lot of Christians struggle with complete faith, but remember, living for God is our only purpose. That was the decision we made when we chose to follow, and deep down we all know that nothing could be more true. I pray for all of us in leadership camps, that we continue to fervently serve the most amazing, beautiful, loving, gracious, awesome, saving, incomprehensible, perfect God that made us, and loves us more than we'll ever understand.
If any of y'all see this, could you pray for my Grandma? Her name is Rosalie, and she means a lot to me. She is starting to slip, mentally, and she is very unhappy in life. She is not a believer, and I know that having a relationship with Christ is the only way for any of that to change. She has really been on my heart lately, and I know that God can turn her life around, and send her on the track to heaven. Thanks guys, love y'all!
