“The sunrise, of course, doesn’t care if we watch it or not. It will keep on being beautiful, even if no one bothers to look at it.”

-Gene Amole

Lord I’m sorry for pushing things that are not really me. That’s not really you. I’ve wasted time and energy pouring water in a bowl with a hole.

Help me love my people and love them well. They deserve my energy my time . My all.

Slow me down. Set me on the right path. Simplify my life . I’m making my simple life more complicated. Trying to find value in doing something. When my value is in being someone : yours .

Running away from one challenge I can overcome with you by running to a challenge I’m trying to win without you .

Right here right now . I have what the world could never offer.

Remind me Lord. Take me down the road where it’s simply being yours I adore.

I complicate things. I’m too complex . Help me work through these thoughts . They make me feel lost.

Knowing you. That’s all. Let me not add to that.

Help me Lord.

Mom is mom. Mom is me. What she believes is how I see. Imagine life what could it be if mom could see mom then she could see me.

If you make God your all He will be all that you need.

Don’t be more passionate about what you feel over what you know. Feelings can be a means to be deceived. It’s much more challenging to disprove truth that is tested to be what it will always be - the same .

You were loved at your worst (God sent His Son to die for you ) so when you are tested at your best (When you came to believe that good message of the gospel and became alive in His Son Jesus) you can stand while being tested (Christ is your righteousness: you are loved accepted , justified , redeemed, illuminated , given His Spirit, qualified etc .,) keep moving forward and just remain at rest (It is finished you are now seated with Christ in the heavenly realm blessed with every spiritual blessing) .

Don’t go past the bad part . Don’t go past the hard part . the part met with friction and force . The part where old habits must die for new ones to form . The path that looks like all hope is gone and you should give up and say “no I won’t” each step you will embrace a new level of confidence . The ground your stepping on Is His life well lived. Changing you from the inside out. Don’t doubt . Please don’t doubt . It will be uncomfortable. It will test your heart resolve to move on. But you can . You will , I pray. When you arrive you won’t despise the day when you had to choose . When it felt like the hard part chose you. You made it through . More beautiful than you knew. Beautiful forged in you.

The law (given by Moses) was the device used by God To punish sin so that Jesus could take the punishment for sin .

We are free in and through this Jesus.

[wthravn]

There is a weapon - the law

Sin holds the weapon. sin is empowered by the weapon.

No weapon no power.

Satan speaks lies .

The law doesn't tell you who you are in Christ.

It doesn't tell you who God is.

It tells you what man shouldn't be doing -the law is good but you Do not have the power to fulfill it.

Christ fulfilled all of it .

A women’s cycle is stopped when a seed is planted . So the cycle of sin was in motion until the Seed was planted. He who broke the cycle broke the curse. A new and living way is available for all those who believe!

“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”

“Don't be in a hurry to love me. Don't spill all your love on me so quickly, because hurried loves leak through the fingers to the ground. They sweeten beyond what we can bear and make us sick, craving a pinch of salt. So if you're going to love me anyway, love me slowly. Love me in detail, in consistency, just a little bit every day, and for the rest of our lives.”

— Letters to my last love.

Love never loses patience never loses faith never loses hope never gives up never fails Love holds all things together

I woke up today feeling kind of blue

And then I thought of You.

“If you can teach people who they are and you can raise the value of their life they’ll begin to see themselves for that they are worth and they’ll begin to live up to what they are created for.”

[wthravn]

The whole time you are living in low self esteem and demeaning yourself by addictive behavior , Christ was crucified , His blood was shed for you, His blood is speaking better things over your life. Can you hear it ?

[wthravn]

Could it be God is speaking. That His love is more involved in your heart than you thought possible.
