Day 9

Day 9 - What Makes God Smile?

You can read about Noah in Genesis.  The first book of the bible. 

What God wants from you is a relationship.  God wants you wholeheartedly.  That means doing whatever God asks without reservation or hesitation.  Wholeheartedly does not mean "I'll attend church but I won't tithe.  I'll ready my Bible but won't forgive the person who hurt me." 

So in Day 8 when I was talking about your God given abilities... fast forward two pages to pg 74.  This is probably where I got this diea.  I DO remember something from this book!!  "He has shaped each person in turn; now he watches everything we do!"  I was a waitress at RPlace when I read this book 6 years ago.  I remember trying to keep a conversation with God during my shift.  8 hours was a long time to pray so instead I used my abilities to worship him.  I was a pretty good waitress - toot toot.  I remember thinking that God would enjoy me by being a good waitress and filling every coffee cup and coke glass as fast as possible.  lol. He enjoyed it :)

God doesn't wait for you to reach maturity before he starts liking you.  You don't have to "get it" before he starts enjoying you.  You don't have to read the bible or go to church before he loves you.  He wants you to do all these things but he doesn't wait for you to reach maturity before he starts liking you.
