Perspective Shift

Hey guys sorry this is late I had a pretty gnarly week last week. So last week i had a chat with my pastor about asking for money, and I was having a pretty hard time swallowing what ever it was holding me back and breaking through that barrier of shame and pride. He told me that it is a gift Im giving people by asking for money, he said that people now a days are so caught up in the material world that its so hard to see God through there paychecks and that my asking for a simple donation gives them a jolt back to what God wants for them in life. Okay now on to my devotional. They ask us whats so special about Jesus? Well let me give you a few of my ideas. I read the verse Colossians 1:17 " He is before all things, and in him all things hold together," my mind was blown. The other week I strayed from Jesus because I was getting hammered emotionally mentally and physically, and I kept trying to find away to make it right, to fix it on my own. I failed miserably. After a whole week of just absolute internal chaos I realized that I hadn't once asked Gods opinion on the situation. So today when I stopped and was still I found Jesus right with me as he always is, there is no chaos that Jesus cant quench, no storm that he cant calm, all he needed of me was to be still and call out. He has held my life together and even when I fall he'll find someway to remind me that he was first and all things were created through him and through him all things are held together.

Not sure if any of that makes sense but there it is. So stoked to see you all soon!!!!
