Today's Scripture:
Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don't worry about missing out. You'll find all your everyday human concerns will be met.
Matthew 6:33
God-reality is faith. When you look at the glass, see that it is half full, but see the potential for even more. Know that God has provided for you, and believe that he is the source of all your needs. Look at what he has given to you in material resources and human resources with innovation. Think of the lemon. It is just a flavorful fruit. But with a little creativity, it is a resource for lemonade, lemon pie, lemon cake, lemon air freshener, lemon furniture polish and even lemon cleansers.

Matthew 6:33
Do you see the glass half empty or half full? Do you find yourself worrying what you will do if you don't make your budget at the end of the month? Are you often needing more to feel secure? If you are a leader as I am, you have the responsibilities and realities that carry financial burdens. You realize that if you do not make sales happen, then payroll could be affected. You carry the burden of not only feeding your family but all your staff members' families, are counting on you too. That reality can be worrisome. I see myself as a shepherd of two flock both my Pickle flock and my Selah flock and both need to be tended and fed.
So for me and I'm sure for you too, maintaining a God-focus is very important to peace of mind in the realities of the life of a christian and in leadership.

True contentment comes when you focus your mind not only on furthering your own business success, but also on furthering God's initiatives. When you focus on God's methods and trust him to provide what you need for success, you do not have to concentrate on lack. You can be content with the resources that God provides to meet your needs.
Selah people' and friends God-provisions often come in common packages, but have significant possibilities. Think beyond what is in your hand, and expand your thinking to the the reality of God-provision.
"Peace be yours as we begin this week with a new glass just full of opportunity as we put our focus on God."
