Lately, I've been thinking about how we solve problems in our lives. It seems that if we "sleep on it" or wait a few days, there's always a good chance we'll come with an answer to our problem. I used to pat myself on the back for finding a solution but now I'm not so sure I deserve a pat on the back. Maybe I don't come up with an answer at all but rather God reveals the answer to me. More and more I'm starting to believe that is what happens. Now instead of patting myself on the back I simply say "Thank you Lord."

The Two Greatest Commandments
The Bible, Mark chapter 12 verses 28-31
One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him "Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
"The most important one," Jesus answered, "is this: Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these."
