Day 2: It Is All Good!
WHAT IF PEACE
filled the earth in this very moment
and made everyone
STOP for just a second?
WHAT IF HOPE
filled the earth in this very moment
and made everyone
STOP for just a second?
WHAT IF JOY
filled the earth in this very moment
and made everyone
STOP for just a second?
Would everyone stop for that one second
and never want it to end?
Because
PEACE IN THIS MOMENT IS POSSIBLE~
"Cast all your anxiety on HIM because HE cares for you"(1 Peter 5:7).
Would everyone stop for that one second and never want it to end?
Because
HOPE IN THIS MOMENT IS POSSIBLE~
"YOU are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in YOUR word"
(Psalm 119:114)
Would everyone stop for that one second and never want it to end?
Because
JOY IN THIS MOMENT IS POSSIBLE~
"Though you have not seen HIM, you love HIM; and even though you do not see HIM now, you believe in HIM and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls."(1 Peter 1:8–9)
Oh...
WHAT IF
you could stop waiting for
WHAT IF?
WHAT IF PEACE, HOPE & JOYaren't somewhere out there
waiting for everything around you to finally become
PEACEFUL,HOPEFUL&JOYFUL?
What if they are available
RIGHT HERE.
RIGHT NOW.
Even when what you
SEE
doesn't look peaceful.
Even when what you
FEEL
doesn't feel hopeful.
Even when your circumstances don't appear joyful.
Because~
"For we walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7)/
Oh FAITH.
FAITH allows us to live in this very moment
with
A PEACE
that circumstances cannot manufacture.
A HOPE
that circumstances cannot determine.
And
A JOY
that circumstances cannot steal.
Not because
PEACE, HOPE & JOY
are the
THREE IN ONE,
but because they flow from
THE THREE-IN-ONE~
FATHER.SON.HOLY SPIRIT.
HE is the
CONSTANT
in every changing second.
And when the
TRIUNE GOD
takes hold of your life,
every second can be liveddifferently
because what is
ETERNALLY YOURS
cannot be taken from you~
"I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of MY hand. MY FATHER, who has given them to ME, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of MY FATHER'S hand. I and the FATHER are one."(John 10:28–30)
Oh,
YOU ARE HIS.
Not just for
THIS SECOND.
Not just when life is
GOOD.
Not just when you can
FEEL HIM.
You are
HIS FOREVER CHILD.
Therefore,
STOP.
Right NOW.
This very SECOND.
Take a breath.
And another.
And another.
And breathe in the truththat if you are
LIVING IN HIM,
then HE is LIVING IN YOU.
You don't have to waitfor tomorrow to experience
HIS PEACE.
You don't have to waitfor circumstances to change to experience
HIS HOPE.
You don't have to wait until everything is right
to experience
HIS JOY.
Because GOD is already at work
IN THIS SECOND.
Even in the things you don't understand.
Even in the things you wouldn't have chosen.
Even in the things you wish HE would change.
Because~
*"And we know that in all things GOD works for the good of those who love HIM, who have been called according to HIS purpose"
Will you join me and take
a second & another
& another
& never stop to stop
toKNOW that
"YOU'RE SO BLESSED"
