Stiving to get closer to Jesus every day and sharing what I learn.
Then the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the earth and blew the breath of life into his nostrils. The man became a living being.
– Genesis 2:7 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
God is an expert at taking that which is hopelessly dead and making it alive. Trust Him to breathe life into your situation.
Since we are surrounded by so many examples [of faith], we must get rid of everything that slows us down, especially sin that distracts us. We must run the race that lies ahead of us and never give up.
– Hebrews 12:1 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
The enemy will use ANYTHING, especially but not exclusively sin to slow you down from fulfilling your calling. What is distracting you?
No fear exists where his love is. Rather, perfect love gets rid of fear, because fear involves punishment. The person who lives in fear doesn’t have perfect love.
– 1 John 4:18 (GOD’S WORD® Translation (©1995))
When we realize how much our heavenly Father loves us you don’t have to worry about the future.
