Kingdoms

I don't know about you, but I have to remind myself regularly that life is not about me. We have the tendency to set up little kingdoms in our lives, that are off limits to God. Kingdoms like money, tradition, selfishness, unforgivingness, career, possessions, relationships, attitudes, habits, time and more. We guard our personal kingdoms and keep God out, we put our kingdoms ahead of God and we miss what God wants to do in those areas of our life. Not realizing what he wants to do is far greater than what we are guarding. Not realizing that he wants to liberate that little kingdom and make it a great kingdom under his loving care. Let's all let the walls down in our personal kingdoms and give God first place. I know that we will be amazed at what he will do. It takes faith, but so does trusting in yourself. Let's trust God.
