Day 2: Stillness Of Trust
HE LIVES IN ME
so I LIVE IN HIM.
I can't get away from HIM,
because HE won't leave me.
Others may come and go,
but MY JESUS always stays
because HIS FATHER told me so
and told you so~
"I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of MY hand" (John 10:28).
Only because
JESUS left the tomb
so HE WILL LIVE in you & me
& everyone else who
LIVES IN HIM.
It is mind boggling at times
as it is so simple yet it is so complicated
to understand fully,
but that is why we
don't "lean on our own understanding" (Proverbs 3)
because
“For MY thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways MY ways,” declares the LORD.
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are MY ways higher than your ways
And MY thoughts higher than your thoughts" (Isaiah 55:8-9).
Why would GOD be mindful of me and you?
Because who creates someone who HE doesn't want to be mindful about.
If GOD
whose thoughts we can not comprehend,
then why try to figure "it" all out
and instead just
BELIEVE
RECEIVE
and LIVE IN HIM
so that HE shines from our being
because it becomes all about HIM.
And if it is all about HIM
then we
RUN THE RACE
with
THE PEACE that transcends all understanding
THE HOPE that transcends all understanding
THE JOY that transcends all understanding
because
And then the RACE becomes a peaceful jog
that takes in every moment
because
RUNNING with JESUS
produces
the STILLNESS of TRUST
that moves our legs
one step at a time
enjoying every step
because eery step
is another step closer
into the mind of
GOD,
for we are in GOD'S mind.
Oh so close.
Never to be removed.
For our names are written in heaven
the moment we simply
BELIEVED,
so that JESUS is written on our heart.
Therefore
let's keep
RUNNING THE RACE
that is before us
with our eyes peeled on the
FINISH LINE~
JESUS
who is before us
and behind us
and in~between.
What do you have to lose?
Nothing because IN HIM we have it all.
Therefore,
"CHRIST BE MAGNIFIED" (listen to the song below)
