Number one

It puzzles me that we, as humans, put so much faith in other humans, that are basically living with the same limitations that we do. There is no human out there that can fix all your troubles. But yet we will have that one or two people that we rely on so heavily that we will always go to them when it all goes bad like they can change our world and set it all right. Now don’t get me wrong, I think it’s a good thing to have people you can go to but I found out the hard way that you can rely too much on them. My Dad was that guy for me. I could talk to him about anything. When troubles came he was my guy. When I was happy about something he was the first to know. When he died it was like the world came crashing down. But something amazing has happened since then. I learned a painful but wonderful lesson that I wish to share with you. When Dad was removed from my life, it was then that I was forced to fully trust God. I could see him clearly because I no longer had Dad to go to. It was like I was a little boy playing peek a boo with God hiding behind my Dad and suddenly Dad stepped away and there he was in plain view! God isn’t scary at all when you get to know him and he wants to be your number one. It was him all along that I should have been going to when life got tough or when I had good news!! He wants to hear it all and unlike Dad or any other human, God has the power and resources to change your life!! 1 Peter 5:7 says cast all your anxieties on him because he cares for you!! It’s true!! He really does!! I’m not telling you to get rid of your number one okay? I am telling you to make them your number two. God wants and should be our number one!! Thank you Lord for loving us so much!!!
Have rockin good day!!
