We need God! Nothing is complete without You!

 

Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows. 

⏤ Job 22:27 

Waiting in prayer is a disciplined refusal to act before God acts. 

⏤ Eugene Peterson

We need God! We need Jesus living in us! We need to follow Him, we need to reflect and imitate Him! We cannot get along well on this Earth School journey by ourselves, we need God to help us get through this Earth journey! That is why God gave us Jesus, with Him, we have light, we have strength, we have courage, we can do anything! 

The Mornings with God app had a nice reminder, Bible verse, write-up, and prayer about why we need God! The App today said, "O God, as the morning has risen upon us, may the Sun of Righteousness also rise upon us. Chase away the shadows of darkness from us, and may we be light in the Lord. Enable us to put off all the works of darkness, whatever belongs to the old evil nature, and to put on the garments of light, doing the works of the day and not of the night. May our light shine before others so that seeing us, they may glorify You. We desire to grow in grace. As the deer pants after the water brooks, so our souls long after You. Our souls thirst for God, for the living God. Nothing else will satisfy them. This world has nothing in it to meet the needs of our immortal spiritual natures. Let us not try to feed ourselves on that which is not bread, but may we learn to bring all our needs to You who alone can satisfy them. We come to You to begin the day so that we may have Your blessing upon it. Nothing is complete without You. As the flowers need the dew and the sunshine to make them fragrant, so our lives need Your blessing to make them truly happy. Lay Your hand upon our heads as we bow before You. Direct our feet in all the day's paths. We want to carry out Your plan, not our own. Order our steps in Your word. Give us our work as we go on. Help us to be truthful, honest, and diligent in all our words and conduct. Prosper us in all our undertakings unless they are wrong. Defeat whatever we undertake that is not agreeable to Your will. We go out now in our Savior's name, and we ask You to take us and use us to do Your will and to bless others. We ask all for Jesus' sake. Amen."

We are here for God! We are here to carry out His plan! To serve, follow Him, and love one another! We need God if we are going to get through this Earth School journey in one piece. We need God! We need His blessings and guidance, if we are going to get to Heaven and get through all here on Earth, we need God! Nothing is complete without You!
