Lord, Help Me to Know You...

Do we really know who Jesus is?

We call Him Lord. We call Him Savior. We talk, sometimes a lot, about having a relationship with Him. We speak of loving Him and how He loves us.

But, do we know Him? Do we recognize who He is? Do we fear Him because of who He is? Does He hold the authority in our lives?

I know that sometimes, in the daily flow of life, the routine that you can almost do with your eyes closed, I forget. I don’t forget Him, but I forget to acknowledge Him. I forget to slow down and recognize moment by moment who He is and why I should seek to praise and glorify Him in everything I do.

He is Lord of all. He is Savior. He is God. He is worthy of all of our praise. He is the King of kings. He is the creator of everything.

He. Is. God.

Let us not, in our casual conversation, forget who He really is. Let us not, in our daily grind, forget what the God of the heavens did for us - Let me not forget what He did for ME! Let us, moment by moment, day by day, live to glorify His name alone.

Psalm 145:3
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom.


Lord, help me to remember this every moment of every day. Help me to keep this in the front of my mind no matter what busy-ness may come my way. Help me, Lord, to point others toward You. Help me to live my life to the glory of God alone. And, more than anything else, Lord, help me to show my sweet boy that he was created to do the same. Help me point him toward You, even in the simple, day to day routine. Help me to be a mother that teaches her child dependence on You and not on man, or himself. Thank you, Lord, for Your grace and mercy towards me daily…
