Day 6: The Best Should



I SHOULD do this. I SHOULDN'T do that.

But oh I wish I SHOULDN'T have not done

what I SHOULD have done

because it is

the only SHOULD that everyone SHOULD do~

LIVE UNBROKEN

by

LIVING THE ABUNDANT LIFE

in every moment

because

that is the only

SHOULD

that we SHOULD ever put on ourselves.

I had let everyone dictate

what I SHOULD do

and who I SHOULD be.

And it kept me stuck,

as I was always wondering who I was,

because I was always trying to be someone else.

Always never good enough when living in the SHOULDS.

My life changed the moment

I allowed

THE ONE

to

DICTATE

who I SHOULD be.

Because the one who DICTATES who I should be

is the same ONE who DICTATED

my being & your being into existence.

Oh I love that

I SHOULD

FOLLOW JESUS.

Oh I love that

I SHOULD

BELIEVE GOD.

Oh I love that

I SHOULD

RELY on THE SPIRIT'S POWER in me.

I finally like the

word SHOULD

when it is yoked to

JESUS~

"Live in ME. Make your home in ME just as I do in you. In the same way that a branch can't bear grapes by itself but only by being joined to the vine, you can't bear fruit unless you are joined with ME. I am the Vine, you are the branches..."*

Because

I SHOULD

be yoked to

JESUS

for

HE is THE LIFE GIVER~

"When you’re joined with ME and I with you, the relation intimate and organic,

the harvest is sure to be abundant.."*

Everyone

SHOULD too

because

"Separated, you can’t produce a thing.

Anyone who separates from ME is deadwood, gathered up and thrown on the bonfire"

*(John 15:4-6)

Yikes.

SHOULD you or SHOUDN'T you~

"Then JESUS said, 'Did I not tell you that if you believe,

you will see the glory of GOD?'" (John 11:40)

The best SHOULD that is not negotiable,

because we can't do life without

THE ONE who gives LIFE~

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the FATHER except through ME" (John 14:6).

LIFE has never been the same

and will never be the same

because

LIFE gets better and better

second by second

when my heart is

doing what I

SHOULD do and what everyone SHOULD do~

"LOVING MY JESUS" (listen to the song below)
