Can you give me some guidance on how you do it? I’m what my fiance calls a “baby Christian”, still learning the right ways of doing things. Any guidance on how to constantly put God first in our lives is appreciated!

When I read the word daily I am encouraged to think in a powerful way, that I can do all things when I have Him. His love is so powerful that it is felt not only emotionally but mentally and physically in a way that no one has/will ever gave to me.

Earlier in my Christian walk I would base God’s presence on whether I felt or discerned His presence and evaluate things by how they turned out. I am so glad He has allowed me to go through trials that I reflected on that demonstrated His sovereign hand at work. I do not see any other way for Christians to cement the loving presence of God in both the mountains and valleys than to put him first in our lives and then to rest in His orchestration of our affairs. God is faithful to us and even though things change around us His Omnipotence is ever present.
If I did not discern and know His presence was active in my life I would attempt to do many things out of my own strength. I would in a sense control my surroundings my way and really end up burned out in my flesh. What a scary existence it must be for many unbelievers and even some Believers that do not understand they have God’s presence. All He asks of us to call to Him( Jer.33:3). Continually abiding in Him brings increasing rest to my soul.
