"Cul-TEA-vation"

That I may know Him....(Philippians 3:10, KJV)
What does one cultivate? 
Today's chat, with H2H friend Jan C, reminded me of all the "false assumptions" that our culture cultivates in our lives via the media. Think ads. 
What measures our success and achievements? 
Is our significance found in our bank account? 
Our satisfaction in $$? 
Our security in our 401K?
If one needs a shift in his thinking, he must rid his mind and his heart of false gods of our culture. Counterfeit gods seem to be ruling our thought life. We're listening to the wrong gods.
Ask self....What am I cul-TEA-vating in my life cuppa?
The reality of knowing Him comes from consistent devotion to personal Bible study and prayer. To know the One true God, one needs to persist in cultivating His presence. (Streams, 5/29)
