Day 2: A Life Changing Day

TODAY is your last TODAY,

because you will never have this TODAY again.

But what if this

TODAY 

is

a GROUNDHOG DAY,

like in the movie

when the main character

had to live the same day over & over again

until he got it right.

But TODAY is

GROUNDHOG DAY. 

 Because you

get

a

DO-OVER

when you are

LIVING IN CHRIST.

What if you TRUSTED like you have never TRUSTED before,

to a point where you OBEYED like you have never OBEYED before.

So when GOD says,

"Do not be anxious about anything" (Philippians 4:6)

you actually OBEY,

so that you are filled with HIS PEACE that transcends all understanding.

So when GOD says,

"Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged" (Joshua 1:9)

and you actually

OBEY by

being COURAGEOUS

 because you know GOD is with your wherever you go.

So when JESUS asks,

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened" (Matthew 11:28),

 you actually OBEY 

and

COME and receive the REST that you have been craving.

So when JESUS says,

“Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in GOD, believe also in ME" (John 14:1),

 you actually OBEY and BELIEVE.

And then you realize that BELIEVING is what makes

OBEDIENCE

so easy

 because

GOD & JESUS

don't waste their life changing WORDS

because

THEY mean what THEY say and say what THEY mean

and

everything THEY say is rooted in

LOVE.

"When you, ________, obey ME you are living in MY love,

 just as I obey MY FATHER and live in HIS love" (John 15:10)

Oh TO OBEY is the sweet spot of LOVE.

When GOD SPEAKS & JESUS SPEAKS

and then you OBEY,

every moment becomes your best moment.

What if you OBEYED today as if your LIFE depended on it?

Well it does because

"If the SON has set you FREE you will be FREE indeed" (John 8:36)

Therefore,

will you join me and

LIVE TODAY like your LIFE depended on it,

by depending on the ONE in OBEDIENCE

 to all HE asks you,

so you don't look back on this day

as a day that keeps you stuck

in an extra six weeks of winter.

Because

"WHAT IF TODAY IS THE ONLY DAY YOU GOT"
