It’s easy to develop a lifestyle which compartmentalizes God. We sometimes try to keep Him in a box at church. But, in order for us to grow spiritually and become “God pleasers” instead of “man pleasers,” we would be wise to include God in to every facet of our lives; not only when we are in church or if when are desperate, but in all things. If we include Him in our decision making, asking Him to give wisdom, we will be better spouses, employees and better citizens. Paul says it this way in Philippians 4:6-7: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in EVERYTHING, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (emphasis mine)
