Where in my purpose am I right now??

-

 

 Are you crying out to The Lord for purpose in life? Do you feel lead or driven in your Spirit to use your gifts and talents to further the Gospel in the world? Is your compass not working and you are unsure which way to go or what the next step is? Let it be known that this is perfectly normal for us.

Even fish and birds and other creatures make migrations with no one is standing there directing them on their way. Salmon going up streams. Butterflies traveling in-mass to a final destination. Swallows returning to a place they've never seen. Domestic pets finding their way home from long distances.

Are we not much more loved by God, that He would purposely guide a willing person to those places that will both fulfill His purpose and immensely gladden the heart of the one He sent with Joy?

"I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye upon you"!! Ps 32:8.    What a wonderful promise!!!

All the creatures listed above take rests along the route to restore their strength, heal any wounds and take in nourishment to sustain them. We are no different! On cross-country trips, do we not take rest stops, get fuel, food, sleep and repairs if necessary? Of course we do, unless you are a participant in the Cannonball Run........

In the waiting for the next leg of the journey, are we resting, restoring, healing and nourishing? I believe God wants us to be healthy in our body, spirit and emotions before we continue on.  Are you neglecting one of those areas? Perhaps that is the reason that you are still in a parked position..... This is the "waiting on The Lord" that we talk about.

If you've given your life to Jesus, this time-frame is included in that agreement. Your heart and spirit is willing and you are asking for direction from Him who knows all things and has PERFECT timing.   Relax and trust in His process. He is known for fantastic results!

Just a thot.

Going in circles?? Trapped in an unhealthy Lifestyle?

  The Frustrating Merry-go-round of a Compromised Life   Got an unhealthy pattern in your life that is bringing you down or to ruin and want out? Here's the answer you are wanting, but may not be looking for.....   Let me give you an example from my personal merry-go-round. Present and past. I confess, I am overweight, and I know it is because of the choices I make when it comes to food. When I look at my appearance, it brings depression and when I get depressed, I eat. Hence, I gain more weight, and I am more depressed.  At times, it feels like a merry-go-round that I am chained to and I can't get off, no matter how desperately I want to. There are many other various merry-go-rounds out there other than gluttony.  Of course, there is alcohol, and it's red-headed stepchild, drugs.( definitely not a dig at redheads! I love them). There is also gambling, pornography, stealing, infidelity, lust, greed and all different kinds of traps.   One way or a...

THE 2 CHOICES THAT WE ALL HAVE

-

  CHOOSE WISELY, WHILE YOU STILL HAVE A CHOICE!   Everyone must choose one of two pains. There is no avoiding it. The pain of discipline, or the pain of regret. The choice is yours. Discipline: "the ability to pursue what one believes is right, despite temptations to abandon it." Folly: "lack of good sense or normal prudence and foresight." The pig who built his house out of brick made a choice which required discipline because of the skill and time required to build it.  The pig who build his out of sticks made his choice, the easy way out, and wound up with only regret. (and homeless...) When you build your house on the rock of Christ Jesus, it takes discipline. Lots of it!  And if you build your house on the sand, you will reap regret, because the storms are guaranteed to come against both houses.  Give a listen to Big Tent Revival's song "2 sets of Jones's" for clarity.

TAKE UP WHAT CROSS??

-

  What Jesus was really saying in Luke 9:23 There is so much misunderstanding, fallacy, and false teaching of this scripture;    "You must deny yourself, take up your cross daily and follow me."  When Jesus was telling this to the disciples, He had not gone to the Cross yet, neither had he been physically carrying one around.  So, since He ALWAYS leads by example, what was He carrying around Daily?  His purpose. And His purpose was to be The Messiah on the cross. Yes, the physical cross was in his path, but that was ONE day out of his 33 years of living, and after that one day, he was done with the material of the cross! He lives even today, still fulfilling His purpose.   This is the same thing that he wants from us.  As we willingly and purposely walk with him in discipleship, we learn more and more of what our individual calling is as He guides our hearts (to will and to do). Philipians 2:13   I've never met anybody who has said...
