Do Not be afraid...God is with you...

Ezra 3:3 GWT - "So they rebuilt the altar on its original site, though they were afraid of the people in the neighboring regions. They sacrificed burnt offerings on it to the Lord every morning and evening."

Even though the people were afraid of the the countries around them, Jeshua and the priest rebuilt the altar of the Lord just as Moses had instructed it to be built. They knew that they had a strong God. They wanted to pay honor to God with their burnt offerings both night and day.

We too may be afraid of the people around us. What will they say if they see me being Christian? What will they do when they see I love Jesus and God? We should not be afraid of the "countries" around us. We have a strong God who watches over us...His faithful servants. You never know whose life might be changed because we trust and showed our true self...our Christian selves in a world of muck and mire?

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made!

Sometimes, we as humanity, try to find our significance in those around us or in our jobs. We keep trying to fill that void of self-worth with the things of earth. When we do this...we will always fall short in finding it. The world in which we live can be cruel and heartless. We look for that love in all the wrong places and go about with this hole in our souls that we are trying to fill.

There is only one way to fill that void...our God is the One who we can rely on to fill it. We are unconditionally loved...accepted...and forgiven by Him. We need to find our significance in God through Christ Jesus. Then and only then can we be made whole...

A Great Read!

PERSEVERE

Although the river may be flooded, and even if there is thick fog over the water, and despite it being early morning, there are still fish to catch. Don’t quit now!

Some days it is just so hard to go on. You are tired...drained..life has just gotten you down.  You may not be able to see the end of an endles season in your life. But this is not a time to give up. Even though it may be hard, don't be discouraged. Don't loose heart. 

This is a time when we need to draw closer to God. This is a time that we need to trust more in God. This is a time when perserverence pays off. We will and can see this season through and emerge stronger than we were. We can do this through the strength that God gives us. And one of the best things is that Gods mercy and strength is new each day. 

How awesome is that...being renewed each new day. There are still things you have been called to do...don't give up until you reach the prize... We can do ALL things through Christ. who strengthens us. 

Blessed Beyond Measure...

NEW BEGINNINGS

Light and warmth lead the bulb to flower just as our sharing God’s light and warmth with others leads to new beginnings in their life and ours.

How strange it is that most of the times when we do something that blesses others...we too are blessed...sometimes even more than the person we are blessing. God tells us that we are blessed to be a blessing to others. How awesome it is to share the wonderful things that God has given me. I decided long ago that everything I have is not mine but God is having me take care of it for Him until He decides who He wants us to give it to. I find myself blessed beyond measure as I share God's treasurers with others...

Over flow

FLOW

We become a part of the movement of God when we let go and ride the current of the Spirit.

As we follow God's path in our lives and let God use us as He will...we are swept up in the flow of His love for us. As are filled with living water that flows from Calvary we over flow onto the lives around us, touching others with the wave of grace that is offered by God.
