Aug.3rd- Aug.9th Sunday-Saturday Daily Devotionals & Reflections
Forming a bond with your God is crucial in having success in Life. If a robot cannot be complete without its motherboard, how can we be complete with our maker's connection in our lives? So, if we are to be able to do all that God has purposed and promised us to do in this life it can only happen by following his lead and staying in constant communication with him. So think of the ways and areas you need to come closer to your God because he is close to you when you seek him. How can your relationship become more deep and rich? What has he told you lately to do? What can you improve in your walk with God that's within your control? These are good questions to start having a good solid foundation and talk with God as you form your bond with him. Know that he wants to talk to and with you. Don’t be nervous or afraid to let him hear what's on your mind and heart to receive from him.
