It's not my strength, but Yours that carries me!

We're all on this journey together. Time to share our witness.
If we can trust God with our Eternity, then we can trust Him with our now.

Forgiveness

I was thinking about this today, and how it relates to my journey..So, Jesus knocks, and God willing, I answer the call. Here I am walking along the road with Jesus, everything is awesome, then all of a sudden..WHAM! A distraction, a detour. I think, oh I can go this one alone Lord. You stay right here, and I’ll be back in a jiffy. Well, the problem is I am human, I stumble and lose my way and when I leave that state of grace, there’s only one ‘way’ back. Only one way back to the crossroads where Jesus waits for me, where I left him. I believe that ‘way’ is through forgiveness. Two of the things Jesus tried to teach us while he was here on earth were love and forgiveness. He showed us these lessons many times, so that we would learn them. One of my favorite stories of forgiveness is the one of the Prodigal Son. “My Son was lost, but now he’s found.”

I sometimes forget the ‘way’ home. That ‘way’ is not always about asking God for forgiveness because I’ve sinned, more often than not it’s about me seeking forgiveness from others, and many times forgiving myself…

For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow.

James 1:3, NLT

My Endurance must be incredible after the last couple of years!  ;)

God is looking for risk takers. What do we gain by making ourselves totally available to Him?

God honors radical, risk-taking faith!

Grace defines you. As grace sinks in, earthly labels fade. Society labels you like a can on an assembly line. Stupid. Unproductive. Slow learner. Fast talker. Quitter. Cheapskate. But as grace infiltrates, criticism disintegrates. You know you aren’t who they say you are. You are who God says you are. Spiritually alive. Heavenly positioned. Connected to the Father. A billboard of mercy. An honored child.
Not sure what’s stranger, that I immediately thought of Jeremy Camp’s song here, or that I whipped out the camera and snapped this. ;)

He’s not finished with me yet!  Great new music.

What are some things that remind you of God's Love?

The secret to loving is living loved. Sometimes we are guilty of forgetting to tell each other that they are loved. We tell them to love, be patient, kind and forgiving..Instructing people to love is like telling them to write a check without making a deposit into their accounts. No wonder so many relationships are overdrawn. Hearts have insufficient love.
