Just me trying to be honest with God.

It’s not working.

Are you plugged in? Is the switch on? Have you tried rebooting? It is amazing at all the things that must come together in order for things to work. The same can be true if we want our daily lives to flourish in peace. I hear people all the time say things like, “I tried prayer, I tried trusting God and it didn’t work.” When this happens it is probably because we have overlooked something important. It does little good to ask God for His help, but never stop long enough to get His counsel, or to get His counsel and then not follow it.
