Good or Godly?

Should you then seek great things for yourself? – Jeremiah 45:5

A simple question, that has rocked my world.  What am I seeking? Am I seeking GOD or the THINGS of God?  What is motivating me, a deeper relationship with the Creator, or the objects of Creation?

How I am spending my time is becoming more of an issue for me.  Not that I am wasting a lot of time, but the things that I decide to invest my time in.  I am also struggling with the motivations in my life.  I am wrestling with the many things choices and decisions I make, on a daily basis.

Am I chosing what I chose based on getting closer to God, or because I want the perks getting closer to God brings?

Is it more about surrender or stuff?

    It’s an eternal struggle. But I love the way you put it. God has been and always will be good.
