Thank you, for these, printed the first Busyness, yes as it is so easy to get caught up in that, and not see the forest through the trees
Yes. Being busy makes us feel so “important”, doesn’t it?
Yes and we thus get caught up in self and can behave as if we are so righteous, leaving out those around us, been there done that, prayed and trust God to keep me aware of this attitude that gets in the way of others to come to the fold of Christ in believe that sets one free to do as God leads in trust, again, trust is key to me, trust and Faith are to me hand in hand, Faith is trust, and I see we all want to trust something someone somewhere somehow, and until it is found in God alone through Son, the void in our hearts does not get filled, and the enemy in high places is at war to stop anyone from seeing what I just said, for when one crosses over it is done for these believers in being set free in confidence not arrogance, thanks Brother as we just keep growing God stays Faithful, trustworthy
