How Thirsty Are You?

As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God.  Psalm 42:1

 

In this day, drink in all He has to offer you!  Fill up on His love, His kindness, His gentleness, His peace and on and on………   Stay thirsty for more as you become closer and closer to your Creator!  Find your strength in what you gain from your thirst!  Be His Completely!

What Are YOUR Plans?

But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever.  Psalm 33:11

 

What plans have you made for your life?  Do they always come together?  Take today alone, and give your plans to your Father!  Place them in His all knowing hands and let Him do with them what He knows will be the best for you!  When the plans you have made change, remember that God is in control!  He will take you wherever His plan for you leads!

Are You Following the Right Person?

 

“Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”  Matthew 4:19

 

In every day that goes by – do you know the one you’re following?  Do the outside worldly influences lead you?  Do others persuade you to do things you know you shouldn’t?  Does the grass always look greener on the other side of the fence?  Stop right now and take a good look at the life you are leading and determine, with God’s help, where you will take your next step!  Allow God to speak to your heart and soul and then, without a doubt, follow Him!  Draw close to Him as you follow and find that others will follow YOU!

Bloom Where You're Planted!

Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop-a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.  Matthew 13:8

 

What will you produce from the seed God has sown in you?  Take a moment today to stop and be still as you ask God to direct your path!  How many lives will you notice as the hours move by and how will you touch them?  Stay in the word as you go about your work!  Be still as often as you need to be as you listen for His direction!

Plant Seeds - Not Trees!

My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.  Hosea 4:6

     How many people in your life don’t know about Jesus Christ?  Don’t worry about those out of your area – just think about those within your neighborhood, your family and friends!  Build a relationship with them!  As you build, get to know them in such a way that you recognize how to slip in Jesus during conversation that won’t send them the other direction!  As you feed them with His word, remember to use baby food!  Be ready to respond should they have any questions.  However, be patient – for some people take a long time to “think” on what you may have planted!  Remember – plant seeds, not trees!  Keep Smiling!
