Like Milk To An Oreo

First, watch this short 30-second video:


 


 

Aside from the obvious humor this provides for your day, I want to draw out a point for your consideration:

What grabs YOUR attention?  Really, I mean if God were to come close to you and want your attention, would you give it to Him? Would you even notice Him there? Or are you so distracted by your busy-ness and importance?

I want to encourage you to structure your daily life so you remain attracted to the divine interruptions by God - like milk to an Oreo. Try starting out with this prayer: "God, please put me in your pocket. When you need me today pull me out and use me. I'm here for you."

Be attracted to God and you'll be utterly (sorry for the pun) Serving Strong!
