More than you think I am

There's a song on the radio, that has me thinking.
It's sung by Danny Gokey,

And it's a good song, it's well worth looking up on You tube.

And it makes sense to listen to it, because it's such amazing song. even if we have church all sussed.

If someone asks you why you're a Christian, what is going to be your response?
Is it just to get to Heaven?
Are you wanting more out of life?
Jesus is more than you think I am.

If you're wanting to get through today, he'll be there, he'll bring you through today.
If you're wondering if anyone is there, or wondering how God will show up.
Keep trusting.
It might seem like it's easy to write, but out of struggles, there's joy.
Grace makes a way, where nothing else will.
You are perfect just the way you are.
you don't need to try any more or any less, to be noticed, to get that job promotion.

And you don't have to work at getting all of your ducks all in one straight line.

One thing we have to make sure that we get right, is God, and praying into things, with prayer, if we face the day with prayer, even the most hardest of days, when we don't know what to pray, just to be still with God, we don't need to get everything right, when we have God on our side, and he is on our side.
We can do anything.
We are like a horse ready for battle, we are armed for success.
Even if we get flustered, we are on course, because we have orders, and today it might just be getting through the hard day, that might just be in.
But it might just be more than that.
With so many ideas in my head, it's so easy to just not anything about, because it's safer.
I have often wondered what is holding me back?
And it's failure, so we just settle for something less than below par, because God is calling us to move in that area.
If you're struggling in this area, we can talk to someone about it, like a good friend.
Often in our heads we have fear, so when we remember that experience, and we say in our heads, ''that's a no go area.'' the more we tell ourselves that it didn't work, that's because yes it might have not worked that day, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't try again.

Some parents talk about discipline, that means steering them in the right direction.
It doesn't mean telling kids off all the time, it means more than that.
Discipline is something that makes character, and character makes good leaders.
It means being open minded, and letting that person experiment and try new things, that person that might be a bit shy in your business might have the solutions to that hard solution.
My friend was like that, yes we need good talkers, but we also need those quiet spoken people who are working behind the scenes to make it happen.

Yes we need go getter's, but we also need someone who pulls us up and says, ''hang on, is this what God wants us to do?" because it can be so easy to just humanize God and say ''oh yes it is, God is made in our image then off we go.''
Knowing that it's not what God wants, and we fail.

Each day brings new challenges, like having too much time on our hands, or that health barrier, that we just want to stop.
God is more than you think he is.

Just think about for today.
