Do not worry...

This message is for you:  I didn’t know what to write about today and then I thought of you.  I’m not sure exactly what you’ve been anxious over but God says, “Do not worry.”  You have been drained of your time and energy because of that situation.  You have to do what you’re going to do and let it go.  Everyday, you think about it, even if just for a moment.  You need to release it.  When I searched the scriptures for God’s Truth on worrying, His message was clear – “Do not worry.”

·         Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?  Matthew 6:27
·         Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about  your body, what you will wear.  Matthew 6:25
·         Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.  Matthew 6:34
·         Do not worry beforehand about what to say.  Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, it is the Holy Spirit.   Mark 13:11

God doesn’t want us to worry about anything at all.  From the top of our head to the bottom of our feet, He is fortifying us.  We should not worry at all.  Worrying infers that we do not believe God is able to make everything alright.  Worry implies doubt – where there is doubt, faith is absent.  And my friends, when God is taking attendance, you do not want your faith to be absent.  Let go of that worry and remind yourself of the Almighty God you serve (before He has to remind you Himself).  : /

Understanding the buyer

When I found this scripture in the Bible, I started laughing so hard.   It was there, waiting on me to become a professional real estate agent, so I would actually understand it. “It’s no good, it’s no good!” says the buyer; then off he goes to boast about his purchase.” Proverbs 20:14 (NIV). “The buyer haggles over the price, saying, “It’s worthless,” then brags about getting a bargain!” (NLT). Hilarious.   All of my real estate agents know what I’m talking about.   We have buyers like this.   We have seen this first hand.   This morning I grabbed my Bible, looking for it’s truths to touch my life and help me along my day, and I found this.   It just goes to show that when people start saying that the Bible is outdated and doesn’t deal with the issues of today.   Or when they say they can’t get specifics, everything is generalities and we have to come up with our own understanding.   This is how God responds to that! ...

Why does God do it? Why does God put up with us?

We are some of the worst friends, daughters, sons, brothers, sisters.  We're so cynical and skeptical, that if someone is being "too nice" to us, we get suspicious that they want something from us.  We ask, "why is this person being so nice? I wonder what she wants?"  We can't fathom that someone would be extremely nice to us without having some type of agenda.  I think a lot of us look at God with that same sideways skepticism. Like, okay, so He sent His son to die on a cross for my sins, so that I might be saved.  And all He wants from me is to accept His salvation and allow Him to come into my heart? "But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in our transgressions - it is by grace you have been saved.  And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his gra...

He who has ears let him hear

I can't help but think that I'm the seed that fell among the thorns, but the worries and cares of this world, and the chasing after wealth and position choked the good life out of the seed that was planted in me. Let me explain:  In Matthew 13, Jesus is speaking in parables about the sower who plants his seed along the path, some of it gets eaten up by birds, some of it falls on rocky places and does not take root so it doesn't survive.  Some of it falls among the thorns and gets choked by those thorns and some fall on good soil, takes root, and produces a crop.  He goes on in verse 22 to explain the parable further. Can I be honest here?  I feel like there is so much more I could be doing for God.  I know He doesn't require much from us, and that's why I think we are so easily able to dismiss the great commission, but out of the love in my heart, I want to do more for Him.  Listen, it's not necessarily what we can do for God when we give him space in o...
