In the World

I want to be more aware of God than of the little distractions life throws at me. I want my first thought when something goes wrong (or right) to be of Him and His love for me. In an effort to be totally honest, I don't want to be one of those Christians who can only talk about God. As terrible as it sounds, it's draining to be around them. It's like beating people over the head with it. I feel like we can be immersed in Christ but still have a grounding in the world. In the world but not of the world.
Psalm 89: 15-16 "Happy are those who hear the joyful call to worship, for they will walk in the light of your presence, Lord. They rejoice all day long in your wonderful reputation. They exult in your righteousness."
Psalm 16:8 "I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me."
2 Peter 1:2 "May God give you more and more grace and peace as you grow in your knowldge of God and Jesus our Lord."
