Many feel that technology slows them down. This could be because they are allowing tech to become a distraction, instead of them controlling the technology. No one has to answer the phone or the texts when they come in and the same with emails. While it's okay to take control over our lives when it comes to technology, the Bible teaches us to be careful of a controlling spirit. The manipulators in our lives. Controlling people will often use emotional trickery to get their victims to do what they want. This podcast goes hand in hand with my last episode titled "Boundaries." God will guide us if we let him. Many are impatient and take action before God has given his answer. That's when we take control over our own lives instead of God. 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control".

#AskingGod Part Three "If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you..." (John 15:7 KJV). How interesting that this is today's Bible verse on #YouVersion #BibleApp. My friend who reached out for clarity asked me to write more on the subject, so I drafted a post last night and decided to sleep on it, thinking maybe God might give me more inspiration on this... He sure did. God gave me a dream. I was in trouble, and I was being asked for a bribe by an official. When I had the chance, I called my dad. I didn't pray. I didn't ask God. And that's when I woke up. You see, it is so deeply entrenched in us to not ask God for help, maybe because we feel He is unresponsive or we are in haste. But if we cultivate the habit of talking to Him and asking Him, I think it would not only save us from a lot of trouble, but if we do fall into trouble, and we call on Him, believing, because of the relationship we have nurtured, He will answer us...and swiftly too. God really wants us to start relying on Him like we really believe He is God. He isn't offended by our wants and needs. In fact, it would be so terrible if we found ourselves in trouble, and God was our last resort... He wants to be our first, and ever present help in time of need, and our counsellor and friend in all seasons... God bless you with #GraceandTruth. Look out for my blogpost on this matter. And if you haven't already, do get the book that inspired this discourse, #RachelsHope. You can preorder the Kindle version, and the paperback is available to order from Amazon now.

#AskingGod Part TWO So, a friend reached out for clarity on yesterday's post... I can't say I wasn't expecting it. We seem to have a lot of nooses with which we suffocate ourselves in the name of righteousness in Christianity. So, she said: I have often wondered about the juxtaposition of asking for want we want and asking God for what he wants. Especially when I know that what I want may not be what he wants for me 🙈🙈 *** There is actually a whole religion on this only asking God according to His will... I know the temptation to be selfish is strong, but really, that's not the point of this whole asking business. It is God who invites us to ASK. Whether or not what we want is what He wants us to ask for isn't the point... The point is, rather than hiding, cheating, lying, doing without (and feeling superior in our denial), we actually approach His throne of grace and say "Lord, this is what I want. May I?" Or "Will You?" Then He can give us His answer... Our asking shows that we trust Him, that we are willing to be made willing, that we believe He loves us and wants what's best for us... It is humbling to ask. So, we should not be afraid to ask. And yes, for what we really want too.

I hear people pray this. I hear people sing this. Remember you're asking for Him to speak to you. So be prepared to hear AND listen. Don't ask and not follow through. You don't have to understand at the moment to do what you're told after asking to be told what to do. #AskingGod To #ArgueWithGod #NotAnOption
