Day 12: Live In The Middle




You look to your left.

You look to your right.

And you are filled with JOY,

because you

are in the

MIDDLE.

The MIDDLE is the sweet spot,

because it is where

you are

LIVING IN GOD'S WILL,

because

it is where GOD invites you to be~

"Your ears will hear a word behind you,

'This is the way, walk in it', whenever you turn to the right or to the left""

(Isaiah 30:21).

And all you have to do is

put yourself,

your "I",

IN the MIDDLE

and ABIDE IN HIM.

Yup, the letter I is in the MIDDLE of the word

ABIDE

and in the MIDDLE of the word

HIM

and in the MIDDLE of the word

FAITH

and in the MIDDLE of the word

BELIEVE.

And when you live in the MIDDLE

you

ARISE

with a

JOY that is unspeakable,

because you feel so

ALIVE

because you are living in the sweet spot,

where you were created to

 LIVE~

IN CHRIST.

I know this to be true,

for when you have your "I"

in the MIDDLE

by putting it

IN HIM,

you are transformed

 in the MIDDLE of

the storms and trials of LIFE

that come dressed as

TURMOIL,

because

GOD doesn't waste a thing.

Oh how HE takes the I out of TURMOIL

and puts it where it belongs,

 in the MIDDLE of the word

TESTIMONY.

 The process

 from TURMOIL to TESTIMONY

is the sweet spot

where you

 experience

THE GRACE

and

THE PEACE

and

THE LOVE

and

THE JOY

of

LIVING IN CHRIST

that is life changing

because it is you who changes.

And you don't do it alone,

because LIFE wasn't meant to do alone.

That is why you have

A FATHER who LOVES you

and

A SON who SAVES you

and

A HOLY SPIRIT who EMPOWERS you.

And before you know it,

you are the one who changes,

even when your circumstances may not change.

LIVING IN HIM

is

 the sweet spot of LIFE,

even when LIFE doesn't feel so sweet

 when it becomes

BURDENSOME

making you so WEARY

that

you can't even see a glimmer of HOPE.

But oh HOPE is there

because

JESUS is always THERE

whispering the words

"COME TO ME".

And all you have to do is

  FAST from the

WEARINESS of THE WEIGHTS OF LIFE

that strive to WEAR you out,

and

COME

by

putting your

I in the MIDDLE

where it belongs~

IN the one who invites you to

COME

and

"ABIDE"
