No..... but I certainly should.

Like many I get caught up in the day to day life, and sometimes forget to include God in my problems and other issues I face in life.
But when I do remember to include him (usually in prayer) things go better for me, even if they go bad.

I don't always trust God honestly and recently I've suffered some consequences from my sin. What God asks of us is indeed for our good and I guess I needed to make some mistakes to realize it. God is so good with me.

All I could do is to echo the answers that Gary & Martin have given. I wish I did trust God more.

Well todays question is.

Do you give God the chance to shine through you, to other people?

Yes, whenever I can.

I try not to miss an oppertunity to reflect the truth and light of Jesus onto others. Sometimes I miss a chance, but it just reinforces my resolve to share God's love with the next person.

My answer on the first question is the same answer Gary and Martin and Chris have given.

The answer on the second question is one day more than the other day.

I've often been challenged by the thing that alot of preachers say.........

'If you REALLY believed that there's a heaven and a hell, wouldn't you be out there on the streets PLEADING for people to come to Christ.'

Sometimes i feel so apathetic, it's pathetic! I do like to think that God's love shines through me during my general working week, but again I sometimes realise that it's arrogance that makes me think that.

In the end I'm a poor, weak, frail human being that has been thankfully saved by Christ. And for that I am eternally grateful. That God would use someone as below average as me. That's how I know God's amazing.

so,

Do you trust God every day,and in every thing you face in life? No, I try, I fail.

Do you give God the chance to shine through you, to other people? No, I try, I fail.

I honestly cannot say whether or not I allow the love of Christ to shine through or not. I don't think we ever really know the extent of what we are, or are not, doing for the Lord. I can only say that I hope I do. But, in the end, only Jesus and the people we reach out to know whether or not His love shines through us.

Well, today's question is:

Do you try your hardest to put God first in everything you do in life?

I probably don't try my hardest, but I do try.

Boy, Drums you questions are convicting. You are exposing us for the weak sinners that we truly are. It's a good thing too, because it reminds us that without Christ we are nothing, and we have no chance at salvation except through His blood.

I like the questions, Tim, but could you try answering some of them yourself? These types of discussion only work when even the one asking the question weighs in with their insights.

Sorry

Question 1... I do try my very best to trust God in every thing i face in life. It can get rough at times but i do try.

Question 2... I do, I give him every oppotunity I can get.

Question 3... I will have to agree with Staybrite, on this one

Todays Question is.

Do you listen when God speaks, And do you obey what he tells you to do.

My answer for this would be. Most of the time I do listen when he speaks, but not always do I do what he says

I'm not sure if I am listening well enough or not. Seldom do I hear that still small voice, but when I do hear it, I do my best to listen and obey.

You've got to remember that sometimes that "still small voice" is just your conscience inside. That's God's way of speaking so many times--when you just "feel" what the right thing to do is.

I try to listen to God and obey. I rarely understand WHY He wants me to do something, but I try to do it anyway. I hope I will only get better.

When God speaks to me I'll listen and obey.
I know that God has it all under His control, He sees the complete plan for my life, I don't.
That's why I will be obedient and listen, because He knows it better than I do.

It's sometimes difficult to discern when God is speaking or it's just your mind saying stuff you want to hear. But when I believe it is God speaking to me, then I try my best (and still fail) to do as he wants.
