Day 12: Live Your Best Life
LIVE YOUR LIFE AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT~
"Trust [rely on and have confidence] in the LORD and do good;
Dwell in the land and feed [securely] on HIS faithfulness"*
LIVE YOUR LIFE AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT~
"Delight yourself in the Lord,
And HE will give you the desires and petitions of your heart"* (Psalm 37)
So if you & I
LIVE OUR LIFE AS IF OUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT
will we get what we want?
Well, it depends on what you want.
If you want
HIS WILL
&
HIS DESIRES
that were handcrafted specifically for you,
then you will get what is personally yours.
When
I
LIVE MY LIFE AS IF MY LIFE DEPENDED ON IT~
"Abide in ME, and I in you..." (John 15:4).
I get so full of HIM
that HE empties me out
so that
what HE DESIRES for me
become my DESIRES
because
"If you abide in ME, and MY words abide in you, you will ask what you desire,
and it shall be done for you. By this MY FATHER is glorified,
that you bear much fruit; so you will be MY disciples" (John 15:7-8)
And when HE meets you and you meet HIM
at the point of HIS DESIRES
you experience
your full self
using your GOD given gifts and talents
that have been birthed to you
from the moment you let out your first cry,
yet lay dormant
as we lay dormant
waiting for something to happen
when
we are the ones that have to happen
the moment we
LIVE OUR LIFE AS IF OUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT~
"But first and most importantly seek (aim at, strive after) HIS kingdom and HIS righteousness [HIS way of doing and being right—the attitude and character of GOD]" (Matthew 6:33).
Do you ever wonder if you are living the life GOD created you to live?
Are you seeking purpose?
When you make GOD your purpose~
"Trust [rely on and have confidence] in the LORD and do good;
Dwell in the land and feed [securely] on HIS faithfulness"*
you experience life to the fullest~
your life to the fullest
that you did nothing to deserve to it
because
you didn't create yourself~
"For we are His workmanship [HIS own master work, a work of art], created in CHRIST JESUS [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which GOD prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which HE set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which HE prearranged and made ready for us]" (Ephesians 2:10).
Oh how HE never stops
loving us with HIS UNCONDITIONAL GRACE
so that we can be who
HE created each one of us to be
and do what
HE created each one of us to do
that is safely protected
in your heart
to be
RELEASED in you
as you continue to
be
RELEASED IN HIM~
"HE must become greater; I must become less" (John3:30)
Just because of
HIS GIFT OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE~
because
“As the FATHER has loved ME, so have I loved you. Now remain in MY love" (John 15:9)
Therefore
will you
