Love Is Kind… #Arise

sunshine vibesBe good to one another …

Small stepping stones of kindness and sweet gestures of love can be the stepping stones of hope that over time strengthen our compassion and tear down our walls of distrust…

Reaching out can be hard, but living in selfishness or pride is harder :)

Live to understand what God’s love looks like in and around your circumstance…

Live to know how to apply God’s truths in every situation you find yourself in…

God is intricately involved in your comings and goings…

He is always after Your heart…

He is gentle… He is kind.

His purpose is to purify us… cleanse us from the things that keep us from hearing His still small voice..

He wants to soften us with His goodness.

Build us with His kindness.

God is Love…

Every day…

Every hour.

Oh How I praise the the beauty of His goodness, and the love of His heart…

Cleanse me Dear Jesus of all that hurts you ….

Draw me into Your loving arms and silence the noises that drown out the sweetness of Your truths.

In times of distress, how I pray Your scriptures of truth would flash through my mind and calm my fears…

I want my life to reflect the love that You are….

Thank You for choosing me, and giving me strength to lay down my walls…

I desire to be beautiful in Your eyes…

And a reflection of love to this weary world all around…

Thank You for Your sweet patience, and amazing hope.

How I pray for  your eyes of gentleness, and Your heart of peace…

I love you, Father, and I give you my day…

Way more of You, and way less of me…

Thank you for loving me…

I love You,

In Jesus Name,

I pray,

Amen

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of Your love.”

Ephesians 4:3

Let The Journey Begin… #Arise

 

and so the adventure begins“And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns…”

Philippians 1:6

Best news ever!

His work in our hearts is a process and journey…

We learn, we grow, we change…

Over and over and over again.

It gives me so much peace to know He prods me to change… to grow…  to be better .. freer… flowing of love, and piercing others with His compassion’s and truth…

He challenges my heart to check myself, to agree with Him where I am wrong, and not strong… to fall on my knees and to seek His beauty…

That is my strength…

“For when I am weak, He is strong…”

2 Corinthians 12:10

Seek Him in your weakness…

Agree with Him in your faults… and stand tall in His love…

Let your life be ever flowing of hope and change… trusting God’s gentleness and laying down pride…

Life is a journey…

Let God be your Guide…

Happy Sunday…

Live in Love,

Let Humbleness do its Job… #Arise

wake slay prayWhen your heart feels messy, your soul thirsty, your spirit crushed, and your thoughts clouded..

 The  weight of worry, or sadness has crept  in…

Sometimes  you can’t even put your finger on the root cause, and sometimes you just need to cry…

know this…

God is drawing your hungry heart to His….

And.. That.. Is … Awesome :)

“Then Jesus said, “Come to me all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take yoke upon you.  Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”

Matthew 11:29

Let Him teach you…

Let Him touch your weary mind with mercy… Let Him cover you with compassion…

He loves you with an undying love…

He is calling your name…

Let humbleness invade your soul.

Go to Him…

Sit with Him…

Cry in His arms if you need to…

Give Him your heart….in exchange for His.

He will strengthen you with love, and  wipe every tear.

And then…

He will fill you with His beauty…  teach you His wisdom … and surround you with His hope so you can get on with your day…

It’s as easy as that.

Yesterday is gone.

Tomorrow isn’t promised.

All you have is today…

And today is shinny and new.

Let humbleness do it’s job…

And. Then.

Wake…Pray… Slay :)

Live in Love,

Lisa

Heavenly Father,

I love you.  I need you.  Please forgive me, I am fighting a fight I can put in Your hands…

Cleanse me with who you are, and turn my eyes toward you…

May my focus be on the beauty of who you are, and the power of Your righteousness…

Teach me Your ways… take my pride… as I give You my hand.

I want to know you better, and love You trust You more…

In Jesus Name,

Amen

I love you, Heavenly Father… Change me from the inside out….

 

 

Is Your Soul On Fleek? … #Arise #Onpoint

 

soul on fleek“But my life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus – the work of telling others the Good News about God’s wonderful kindness and love…”

Acts 20:24

Assignment accepted :)

Don’t let your days go by without a purpose…

The Apostle Paul said his days were “worth nothing unless He was telling others about God’s wonderful kindness and love”

That is our daily challenge…

Showing God’s love is our most beautiful legacy… and you’re living that legacy every single day…

Your living God’s purpose for you, right where you are….

Let Him consume your heart…

Let His love be the overflow of hope you pour into your family .. your work .. your simple daily errands, and encounters…

Make the moments count…

Your family needs you to be present, everyone needs a kind smile… or a few minutes to be noticed, appreciated and thanked…

Take a minute today to reflect on your heart…

Do yo like what you are leaving behind you when you walk away…

The beauty of today is that you can love…

Love costs nothing… yet changes everything…

So love …

Love big…

Love strong…

Stop comparing your life to someones else’s… stop beating yourself up… stop over thinking every little thing…

Be like the salmon, the coolest fish ever!<  go against the current of your thoughts, stop looking at yesterday, start fresh,  and fight hard to keep moving forward…

It matters, You matter!

Live in Love,

Lisa
