Peace Wonderfyl Peace
Peace….there are people who would give all they had just to have peace in their life! Do you know that there is a peace that God can give you that is so amazing that no matter what is happening AROUND you, it’s not happening IN you? Chaos on the outside, peace on the inside! I love the scripture in the Bible that says “He will keep me in perfect peace when my mind is stayed (or anchored) on Him.” Believe me, whatever you go through in life, it’s not worth getting angry, fussing with your family, walking in drama, or flying mad. The next time you get an “opportunity” to blow sky high and rant and rave, remember this thought… I REFUSE to lose my peace! It’s a great feeling to get a good night’s sleep, walk with a bounce in your step, and live in a state of peace and joy! And boy does the enemy hate to see that happen. It’s his goal to make you miserable. He will “rattle your cage”, doing anything and everything to get you to react. He usually uses those closest to you to do it too…I’m talking family and friends here…or other…
Yesterday is over!
Yesterday is a completed work. It can never be re-done. Rehearsing it, reliving it and mulling over the “what ifs” will only bring torment. Don’t dwell on what was but set your sights on what can be! Life is waiting, laid out before you, full of many treasures and just waiting for you to put your mark on it!
Keep your Nose on your face!
If you are the self-appointed CEO of someone else’s business, don’t print up your business card just yet. God gives us enough…more than enough…of our own stuff to take care of without sticking our unwanted nose, advice, or opinions into the lives of others! Those whose lives you’ve been trying to orchestrate will thank me for this post!
Spiritual Laws
God’s kingdom has spiritual laws in place that we have to obey or it blocks the things God has for us. One of His spiritual laws is that faith is the currency of heaven. You can only “receive” what you are able to “believe”. Too many of us have missed out on what God had for us because we couldn’t “believe” without seeing.
Tough Life, Tougher God
Life is tough but it’s a whole lot easier with Jesus! The enemy will do everything to keep you defeated, depressed and full of fear. That’s not who you are! God created you with everything you need to walk through this life victoriously! The Bible says: Stand still and see the salvation (deliverance) of the Lord. You’ve got this because God is on your side!! So buck up, my friend, and keep moving forward fully assured that His Holy Spirit is IN you, directing your every step.
Just words!
Anybody can say “I love you”…just know that if they really love you, they won’t judge you, try to change you, manipulate you or try to convince you to do something you’re not comfortable with…love gives, encourages, cherishes, is patient and will always have your back! Pay attention and you can read their heart!
