“Because Jesus Lives In Us”

“Because Jesus Lives In Us”

We do have hope! Although we don’t always feel like smiling, we can choose to do what’s right, even when we don’t feel like it. We can be kind and affectionate because Jesus is and our life is hidden in him. When we need to, we can reach right down inside our heart and soul and pull out some Jesus and sprinkle it on a wound or a broken heart. Sometimes easier said than done. But with Jesus all things are possible. When we are overwhelmed, we can breathe in Jesus like fresh oxygen. Since his love surrounds us, bright hope instantly rises like the sun on a fresh Spring morning. 

“Empty Our Self”

How liberating and empowering it would be to be free from self-love with selfless abandon, to serve the lowest and the broken in the humblest of circumstances with a soul full of Holy laughter and joy, all the while realizing that I am a child of the King. There is great joy in making ourselves of no reputation, just as Christ did. Today, empty yourself of self and serve the King with selfless abandon!

“Be Still”

“Be Still”

Call your soul to rest.
Stop burning the candle at both ends.
Be still and know that he is God.
Turn off all noise.
Listen for his still small voice.
Jesus welcomes all who labor and are heavy-laden to find rest in him.
Take your burdens to the Lord.
Leave them there.
