Today we talk about the importance of having a right view of God and living our lives in continual awareness of His presence and love.

Episode 24: The Gospel
This episode is named after this song. I would encourage you to listen to it and specifically note the chorus in light of our discussion today. Here is another song about how amazing the Lord's heart towards us is. This second song is also relevant to the Brother Lawrence quote I read.
Quotes from today:
“What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” (A.W. Tozer)
"Brother Lawrence felt it was a great delusion to think that the times of prayer ought to differ from the other times." (The Practice of the Presence of God)
"My King is full of mercy and goodness. Far from chastising me, He embraces me with love. He makes me eat at His table. He serves me with His own hand and gives me the key to His treasures. He converses and delights Himself with me incessantly in a thousand and a thousand ways. And He treats me in all respects as His favorite." (The Practice of the Presence of God)
