EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE

May we all make a conscious effort today to do something effective for God. Making conscious efforts with God means we will deliberately and actively engage in practices that deepen our relationship with Him.

We can be conscious to pray, study scripture, and actively seek God’s guidance in our daily decisions. There are so many ways to be aware of how we can utilize our time each day. But the key is “be aware” of the “how.”

Try cultivating gratitude! It is another way which I recently shared in another devotion…, and we could intentionally focus in on God’s presence throughout our days; essentially, making a conscious choice to be more mindful of our connection with our Savior. How special is this?

I personally learned that by being conscious of my dedicated time to communicate with God through prayer, expressing my needs and thanking Him, the concerns I had went to elevated joy in my relationship with Him because He showed me He was working. I soared to new heights with Jesus and not doing my work alone.

Let our conscious and direct thoughts come to us from God! He will move.

” I wait expectantly, trusting God to help, for he has promised…” (Psalms 130:5)
