There's a brand new invention for people who want to relax in an atmosphere of tranquility.
It's a phoneless cord.

Ps 65:11
Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness.
KJV
*********************************************************************************************
If we spend part of every DAY with the Lord, the whole YEAR is crowned with His goodness!
Following in the directed "paths" of the Lord always produces "fatness," or special blessings!
One path of the Lord, in which He directs all Christians, is PRAYER. Our spirits starve when we live at a distance from the mercy seat! Perserverance in faith comes by frequenting prayer. The nearest place to the gates of heaven is on our knees. Strong and happy saints are those that bathe daily in prayer! Seven days without prayer makes one weak!
Another path, in which our Lord directs all Christians, is STUDY. The Word of God is our "daily bread." Without feeding at God's table we have little spiritual strength. The Word of God is the will of God. If we would know His will in our life, we must study His Word.
A third path, in which our Lord directs all Christians, is FELLOWSHIP. The Greek word is "koinonia," which means partnership with participation. In order to have partnership with Christ, we must participate in fellowship with Him. In order to have partnership with God's church, we must participate in fellowship with other saints in a local body of believers.
A fourth path, in which our Lord directs all Christians, is WITNESSING. How long has it been since you prayed for someone with whom you could share the gospel? How long has it been since you planned time to share the gospel with someone? Ineptness in sharing is the result of no practice.
A fight path, in which our Lord directs all Christians, is MINISTRY. Every Christian is endowed with a special talent or gift. Some are given more than one. But ministry is USING those talents and gifts in the local body of believers to benefit our Lord. Are you SERVING with your talent in the church?
Walk the DIRECTED paths and watch God drop "fatness"!!
Love ya,
