give your attention to God!

hey y`all!
today was good. i hung out with ashley, & went & got new makeup. we've changed our song for the talent show, yet again. hopefully it wont change again. haha i've been reading all day, i feel like somewhat of a nerd. haha.
well anyway, my devotion last night was on giving your complete attention to God! the bible says in Matthew 4:10, "...For it is written, Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only." we should let God rule our hearts, he needs to be first & foremost in our lives. we need to give him more than just a few hours of our time on Sunday. we need to spend time every day in his word and praising him and we need to go to him with every aspect of our lives. he needs to be in first place in our lives. my devotion book had something really good in it. John Elderedge said, "The greatest enemy of holiness is not passion; it is apathy" and i really believe it. you can be passionate about Godly things, but having no feeling at all is horrible. also my devotion book said "The world wants yout o pay attention to its distractions and temptations. God wants you to pay attention to His Son. Trust God." which is true. we should just trust God because he knows what is best for us. this reminds me of the lyrics of Voice of Truth because it says: "I will listen and believe the Voice of Truth." God is our voice of truth and we should follow what he says in everything that we do!
i love y`all
God Bless!
