Inspire life! Help other be filled!

 John 7:37 " On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. 38 Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from him."   Streams of living water will flow from him!    When we are filled with the Spirit of the Lord we are filled to over flowing and those streams of living water give life to those around us.  If we are empty inside we can be a "life suck" to those around us.     Back when I was drinking I would try to fill myself with alcohol to fill the emptiness inside. Although for a moment, I would be numb, in the long run it created a bigger vacuum.   Whenever I look to be filled from something other than the Spirit of God it is never enough!!  If I look to another person to fill me then I am putting my expectations on a person and they are sure to disappoint, simply because no one aside from Jesus can ever fill us to the full.  It's not humanly possible!!!   Today, this New Year, let's make a commitment to be filled to overflowing with the love of Jesus, so we can positively affect those around us!   😇🙏❤️✝️

Let go of the lie, walk in the TRUTH!

 2Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"

....21 "God has made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God."  The old is gone the new is here!!   The sin has been removed and we inherit the righteousness of Jesus Christ!!   What an amazing gift!!!   This is the “Powerful Gift of Jesus!!”  We are no longer defined by the sum of our mistakes we are defined by the right standing of Jesus!   It has been a life journey for me to accept this.   I know the depravity of my own heart.  I know the many, many  times I put my personal desires ahead of my desire to relate to God.   Through it all He loves me and offered His perfect gift of salvation.   Day by day He delivers us from our sinful natures and lets us walk in His Spirit of TRUTH.    Today when we feel the temptation to tell  “just a white lie”, or not be completely sincere with someone.  Let’s renounce our old ways and walk in His TRUTH!   It’s not easy in the moment.   Easy isn’t always best!!   Truth is; we are not our sin we are His truth and righteousness.  Today, be inspired to walk in that!!😇🙏❤️✝️

Happy Joyful New Year!

Happy New Year!!  Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."   We can make big plans for 2025, but the best laid plans are from Our Lord!!  My constant prayer, is your way God not mine.    Yet immediately after praying that very prayer I boldly seek my desires and not His.    Eve desired to eat from the tree, can you imagine the plans God had for her and Adam if they would have desired His fellowship over the passing of the serpent?   God promises He has plans for us!! Plans to prosper us and not to harm us plans to give us hope and a future.   Today as we enter 2025; let’s try our best to walk in the plans of the Lord.  Let’s try our best to seek Him first and let His gifts be given to us.   The simple act of being able to TRUST God in all things and TRUST His ways are better than ours is a great place to start, so we can live in His health and wellness in 2025.   May you have a  joyous, blessed and Happy New Year!
