Our young adult group just started a study on the book Crazy Love by Francis Chan.
In the first chapter, he challenges the reader to "stop praying." This sounds like bad advice for the one who is seeking to connect with God. His point is that we should discontinue our prayers where there is a lack of an awareness of God in the midst of our seemingly spiritual activity.

As you are praying, as you are serving, as you are reading scripture, consider God. Consider His holiness; splendor; power to save and heal; self-giving Love; anger against sin and arrogance; compassion for the broken and lowly ; Justice; holy jealousy for us; Creation and power to give new life; What characteristic of God is especially significant for you today? Let that give life to your prayers and your activities of this day.

I've been thinking about God's majestic power after reading Psalm 29
⁴ The voice of the Lord is powerful;
the voice of the Lord is majestic.
⁵ The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars;
the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
I image the power behind the shattering of a mighty tree by lightning or other internal pressures. To be anywhere close to that event in the woods would cause us to dive for cover.
This mighty force is directed toward the blessing of God's people:
11 The Lord gives his people strength.
The Lord blesses them with peace.

Our journey toward full devotion to God will start with the revelation of who God is. Jesus invites us to whole-heartedly live for him. This journey will be charged with life and passion as we continually consider God, most fully revealed in Jesus Christ, God's Son, Lord and Savior.

Stop! and consider God. Open the Bible; meet with other believers; meditate on your understanding of God; Today, pause several times just to consider God and to praise Him.
