Without exception, everyone wants to be known and loved for who we are. Our default is, we all desire to belong and to be accepted for who we are and not for what we do and what we have.
Because He Speaks
The very reason why I’m alive, hopeful, joyful and peaceful is because the Lord our God still speaks to today. If He sustained the existence of the whole creation by the word of His power, then that includes you and me as His created speaking beings. Truly, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4)
Learn Everyday!
Yes, I watched the “Avengers: Infinity War” and somehow learned a few things from it. I love it when the Holy Spirit opens my eyes to see the wonder of Him in everything. This has always been my prayer, “that I may never lose to see YOUR wonder”. We may have different views about the movie but I’d love to share some of mine.
When In Doubt
When in doubt, look up and look at the stars in the heavenlies and be reminded that God created them into existence and sustained them to today by the word of His power.
Our Forerunner, Jesus!
JESUS is our FORERUNNER Who has gone in before us, Who established ahead of time an UNSHAKEABLE and UNBREAKABLE HOPE, that IN HIM we may experience PERFECT PEACE in the midst of every storm that comes our way.
“He was chosen BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.” (1 Peter 1:20 NIV)
Reigning In Life
No one has seen our Heavenly Father except the One Who is from Him. Jesus is the exact representation of Him. Jesus only says what He hears our Father saying, and only does what He sees our Father doing. He expresses the very character of God.
“He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of His nature, and He upholds the universe by the word of His power.” (Hebrews 1:3)
Prayer
One day I was chatting with a very good friend of mine and suddenly she mentioned how fearful she is to ask God for prayers all because they may not be answered. Hmmmmmm … that kept me in silence for a minute. I didn’t know how to “theologically” answer her to encourage her. Instead, I went home that day with those words echoing at the back of my mind.
