Directions for staying connected! Be a 'shining light!' 1 John 1:3

Good morning to all,
The directions in my room to get connected to the Internet are as follows:
   (1) Plug the cable into your network jack
   (2) Turn on your laptop
   (3) Double click on your browser
           For technical assistance, please call
                  866.778.3778
These directions seem fairly simple yet it has been my experience in the past that I've had difficulty with faulty equipment (usually because I don't follow directions)!  God gives us very simple directions to stay connected to Him also, yet many of us use the toll free number only in emergencies when we are in trouble and need to be bailed out.  If we plug Him (the cable) in before we have time to get distracted, then we are likely to make choices that will be pleasing to Him.  Instead of using the toll free number for emergency calls only, use it 24/7 to let Him hear all the things you are grateful for and when you praise the Lord, their will be no need for technical assistance.  Pay special attention to detail with prayer, reading the Word, meditating and then your whole posture will be a 'shining light' for others to notice.  If you are going to brag, don't brag about your successes, brag about everything that He has done and the things that He is doing in your life.  Successes are contagious if we give Him the honor and glory He deserves!  1 John 1:3 says, "We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us.  And our fellowship (connection) is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ."
Your brother in Christ,
