Furthermore God said, “Let us make man in our image according to our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the beasts, and over all the earth, and over everything that creeps and moves on the earth.” Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God he created him: he created them male and female. And God blessed them, and God said to them, “Bring forth fruit and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over every beast that moves upon the earth.”
Genesis 1:26-28, THE HOLY BIBLE
We need time for God to speak to us without anything interfering. Often. Undisturbed. Constant contact with Him. We cannot live successful Christian lives without being connected. Going to church, singing songs, being around other Christians, and things of that nature do not keep us connected with God Himself. TRUE fulfillment comes when we are sold out for God. James 4:7-8, “Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. COME NEAR TO GOD AND HE WILL COME NEAR TO YOU. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double minded.” I find myself praying throughout the day, only when I need things. I never take the time during my day to praise him and say “Thanks, Big Papa!” Find somewhere to go and be with God, not to yammer about needing things.

Then Jesus spoke again to them, saying, “I am that light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have that light of life.”
John 8:12, THE HOLY BIBLE
Be anxious for nothing, but in all things let your requests be shown to God in prayer and supplication with giving of thanks. And the peace of God which passes all understanding shall preserve your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7, THE HOLY BIBLE
