Are You Flossing?

How often do you workout?

How often do you change the sheets on your bed?

How often do you take a shower?

How often do you grocery shop?

How often do you change the oil in your car?

How often do you floss?

How often do you eat?

How often do you read the Bible?

How often do you talk with God?

How often do you experience God?

Now I will admit some of these questions are a bit personal. Some are more serious than others. And some really do have a critical impact to your day. As a girlie who cannot spend too many hours between meals…food is definitely not something I just ‘forget’ often.

It’s that last little question on the list…

How often do you experience God?

Is it daily?

Or rather is our experience of God a past memory. A memory of a salvation moment many years ago?

Or maybe we can think back to a time a few years, weeks, months, days ago?

May we know that experiencing God is meant to be daily.

If we are in a purposeful relationship with Jesus, we are experiencing Him daily.

If we are purposefully praying for what we need…

Give us today our daily bread. Matthew 6:11

We need to know that God is purposeful in supplying our need…

Jesus responded, "The real significance of that Scripture is not that Moses gave you bread from heaven but that my Father is right now offering you bread from heaven, the real bread. The Bread of God came down out of heaven and is giving life to the world."
They jumped at that: "Master, give us this bread, now and forever!"
Jesus said, "I am the Bread of Life. The person who aligns with me hungers no more and thirsts no more, ever. I have told you this explicitly because even though you have seen me in action, you don't really believe me. Every person the Father gives me eventually comes running to me. And once that person is with me, I hold on and don't let go. I came down from heaven not to follow my own whim but to accomplish the will of the One who sent me. John 6:32-38 (The Message)

For Jesus fulfills every need, purposefully and perfectly!

Oh, and the purpose of this relationship with Jesus…its meant to be a daily thing.

May we be encouraged that He has an experience for us everyday…that means today too!

GOD, your God, is with you every step you take. Joshua 1:9 (The Message)

May we be passionate about experiencing our Jesus today.

***Oh and just so you know…I am dental hygienist on an extended sabbatical so don’t go admitting to me you are not flossing on a daily basis!
