wrapped up in rules

If you're like me, there are days when I get so wrapped up in what I have to do, what's on my agenda; where I need to be at this time, that I forget that I'm not the one in control. 

In the bible, the Pharisees got so wrapped up in the rules and regulations that they were being their own gods.  They were going through life relying on their own selves. 

Acts 5:29 "But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men."

We all have to follow the rules and laws of the land we live in.  

But life is so much more than this.  It's the freedom we can experience in living for God. Spend time with God.  Relax in His Word and let Him guide you throughout this day.

God delights in His children.  Obey God.
