Thought questions - Psalm 73

Are we functionally living as though God isn't the source of our happiness, contentment and peace?

1) What is my greatest nightmare? What do I fear most?

2) If I failed or lost it - What would cause me to feel that I did not even want to live? What keeps me going?

3) What do I rely on or comfort myself with when things go bad or get difficult?

4) What preoccupies me? What do I think most easily about?

5) What prayer, if unanswered, would make me seriously think about turning away from God?

6) What makes me feel the most self-worth? What am I the proudest of?

7) What do I really want and expect out of life? What would really make me happy?

are any of the things from these questions things that your mind has convinced itself that you need alongside God to really be satisfied?

REMEMBER - a life of worship is where we gain the right perspective to remember that God is the strength of our heart and our portion forever!
