Supernatural

Did you know?
Your life is on heavenly display. Our God is intricately involved in our lives, it continues to blow my mind every single day.
Do you believe He is good?
Do you believe He loves you?
Do you believe He wants the best for you?
Do you believe He has called you to love Him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength?
Do you believe that the greatest love we can every experience is in Him alone?

Yes, we are called to that holy, un-worldly, supernatural quality: love.
Love requires pain. Love requires sacrifice. Love is supernatural.

Do we live in love... or do we live in selfishness.
I am in a battle every single day... a battle of giving over my selfish desires to God, and taking on His quality of love.
He is good, friends. Oh, so good! His presence is delight, and perfect peace. 

Good, He Is!

Forever, He is alive!
Do we know the goodness of our Lord? He is so good!

Epic

We are called to the epic.
Nothing less.

Tap in to the desires and dreams of your heart.
Are they there by accident?
Are they yearnings of your heart that you brush aside as 'whimsical thinking'?

Do you know what you're worth?
If you do, arise.
go out there and get what you're worth.
Pursue the dreams God has placed within you. He has called you to live a life more epic than you've ever imagined, He placed it within you, the dreams He has for you is more whimsical than your greatest whimsy. Romance, adventure, sweat, blood, the fight, the battle, the defeat, the victory, its all yours... do not brush aside the possibility.
Be the person you've always wanted to be.

Do NOT let circumstances define you!
The one who Created you is far greater than you can know or imagine.
"Those who know their God shall stand firm and do mighty exploits" - Daniel.
Mighty exploits do not come before the knowledge of the one we follow.

Life is meant for us to know the One who made us and loves us!
So let us arise, it starts first with the mind. The knowledge of The Holy.
The knowledge of Who's we are and what He is up to.
The secret place of intimacy with the author of Love.
Do we know our God? Only a renewed mind can begin to grasp the truth of His being.

My soul cries out for a renewed mind!
I've been trying...
Taking steps of action...
Conquering fear.
Speaking truth.
Praying.
Taking fumbling steps the best I know how, knowing Jesus is with me.
Because I know... I know I am created for something far greater than what I can see or imagine. My wildest dreams seems improbable and foolish, whimsical and impossible, but if I don't pursue the dreams God has placed within my heart, who else shall? What else is worth pursuing?

Look at creation.
Does it not speak to something far more grand, more divine than we've made life out to be?
Does it not speak to the whimsy and adventure of God?
Does it not point to the existence of something far more glorious than what we settle for?
Its time to dream with God.
And walk with the authority He has given us.
To walk the talk.

Workmanship

We are His workmanship.
That is a calling so much higher than most of us are living.
But its who we are, and we choose whether we want to live it.

We are called to SO MUCH MORE than we know!
RISE UP and be!

Nothing Less!

Have you ever stopped and pondered...
that you belong to Jesus.
You are His very own beloved son or daughter.

And that changes everything.

With that knowledge comes an audacity that men and women of the Bible actually walked out.
That audacity is faith, the knowledge of him to whom we belong.

Salvation is yours.
Salvation of the soul is just the beginning of this amazing journey.
Salvation in every way is at our disposal.
We have, at our choosing, the ability to fully put on a transformed mind.
Can you imagine what our lives would look like if we actually started thinking like Christ? 
We've all heard about the power of a renewed mind.

The power of a disciplined life.

The power of joy.

The power of peace.

And that, my friends, is exactly what we can walk in.

If we want it.

Will you settle for anything less than the fullness of the joy Jesus has for you?!
Will you settle for anything less than the fullness of peace, power, and LIFE that Jesus has for you?!
Will you settle!?

WHY would you settle when the most amazing life has been bought for us?
No matter WHAT happens, we have no reason to have a bad attitude, to walk in fear, to walk in depression or chaos. Jesus calls us His own and He fully desires to walk with us.

We can only have His blessing if we do it His way.
So come on.
Lets throw away anything that prevents us from living the fullness of the life Jesus has for us. It will continue to entangle, until we decide to throw it away and fight for nothing less than the path that Jesus is on!

Beautiful Redemption

The flowers shall bloom again.

Out of the tears has peace emerged

Out of extreme failure has extravagant forgiveness been found.

Out of the cross
has the pain of sin been washed away
and the joy of the Lord
poured out
like a raging waterfall.

The Breath of God
transforms
Dirt into Life.

Goodness

YHWH is good.
Three words... that are fully true, but quite rarely fully believed.
Think of what would happen if we really believed this.

We would live.

We would trust.
We would leave our cares in His hands.
We would delight in Him,
fully knowing He delights in us.

We would quit worrying about ourselves, and let God take care of us. 
We would start living for Him, not concerned about ourselves.
We would connect with His heart, seeking His heart, not concerned about vain matters.

Yes, Jesus is good.
He is so good.
And we better believe it, for the Bible bleeds the goodness of Jesus!

And oh why stress about us? Why not let Jesus take care of us? Why do we worry and stress and fret, paying regard to the vain idol of disbelief?

"Those who pay regard to vain idols
 forsake their hope of steadfast love." Jonah 2:8

Joy

Sometimes...
I can hardly contain the joy that fills my soul.
Its inexpressible.
Its beautiful.
Its amazing.
Its straight from the throne room of Jesus.
Rivers of life and joy gushing forth from His glorious presence.

Oh how delightful it is to be a kid again,
rollicking through the fields of God's love.
Delighting in His beauty.
Relishing the wonder of His presence.
Delighting in His smile.
Running with Him, hand in hand,
His glorious laughter
The twinkle in His eyes
The unbelievable joy of His presence. 

He is Love.

Humility

The greater our humility, the more we enable ourselves to experience God's glory. 

All I Need

Jesus, 

I used to look to You just for direction and guidance, for blessing and protection. 

Now I need none of those, absolutely none. 

I just need You. 

Your heart, Your face, Your voice, Your presence, You.
