Thanksgiving

What are you thankful for? Search your heart and let those things ring out from your soul. I encourage you to start your prayers with thanksgiving, thank the Lord for the blessings in you life, in the lives of others and for seeing Him work daily. In doing this you might find a new perspective in how you go about saying whatever it is you plan to say next. In doing this I realize it's really His will in my life and not my own and so I pray specifically for His will in my life to be done, no matter what I think I need. And what's more important than that, He's awesome and supreme how much more is His will better than our will?
Do it, meditate on it.
Happy Thanksgiving, give it to God!

Supremacy

What is he meaning of "Supreme"? The meaning can only be understood if we truly recognize the the meaning for the word in our lives spiritually. What I'm saying is, "Who/what is supreme in your life?"Is it a job, a lifestyle, a car, an education, a relationship? But who is it supposed to be, what is it supposed to be? The answer is really only as deep as you want it to be. The answer should be Christ, but how many things are we putting in place of the awesome supremacy of Christ. It's amzing when we reallize how many things we try to put in place of Christ, how many things we try to place before Christ. We need to place Christ in the slot of top priority, but we cant do it ourselves, only by Prayer and our relationship with Him could allow us to truly keep Christ Supreme in our lives. So, pray that Chist will rein in you life, that He might be lifted up in your life, that His Lordship would be supreme over your life!

For His Glory

This summer has brought happiness and sorrow, any of you who know me know that this summer I married my best friend and was working my dream job. But also this summer I was fired from my dream job, possibly throwing me into the deepest depression I've ever known. It's hard to understand that I was depressed because of a JOB, but after about a month I've figured out that this could only happen if I was living in a way unsuited to God's plan for me; I was living to work and not living to glorify Him. I was going to work to fill the void I pushed God out of. I'm not an expert but I’m pretty sure that this is not what He had wanted for me to do.

But the question I have for you is, How often do we do this? Why do we push God aside to fulfill our selfish desires? Perhaps we can only see this with hind sight, at the time it feels we're doing the right thing. I know in the situation I was telling myself, "I'm providing for my family, I'm trying to spread God's joy and light into the world and that cant be wrong, right?" But I lost sight of the Simplest form of Love, I was not in close communication with God, I wasn't Praying or reading His Word, I wasn't loving or nurturing toward my relationship to the One who created me, so I lost the real reason I was working so hard for. If I'm not working with God I'm only working against God. Though I thought I was spreading God's light into the world I see now that I wasn't, I didn't leave a lasting legacy of Christ in that place. They miss me for me not Christ, they miss my personality not Christ's love, they miss my passion for food not my passion for Christ.

Is it more important that they miss me or the light I shined onto the workplace? The answer is simple; Christ calls us to be His light to the world that they might see Him, not me! I can't help but feel as if I've failed God, but I also failed the people I loved and worked with because of my selfish ambition. I failed them because I stifled God's light and will for them and myself.

We're put in these places for a reason, let's not forget that! We're here to make disciples of all nations, that includes the places we work, the people we work with, the people we see daily. Can we say that we've done that today? If not, hopefully we have another day to do so. God cannot be pushed to the back burner. He must stay front and center in everything we do. It's imperative not only because He calls us to, but we are responsible for their eternal soul, what if we're the only Christians they come across in their lives? We need to make a lasting impression of Christ not ourselves, Christ is our Legacy, He is the reason we're in the places we are and meet the people we meet. If we hide His light from them we are no better, and our relationships become pointless.

I really encourage you to examine yourselves and ask yourselves the questions, "Am I doing this with God? Is He Glorified in my conversation? Am I really putting myself last and Him first?" If not it is important that you step back and really see where God is pushing you to go, because He does everything for His own glory, not yours.

I encourage you to Pray! Pray for the people you work with/for, pray that He will open the doors for you to share His light with these people in your life, pray that you're sensitive and have open ears to hear his plan for your situation, for it's all for His Glory!

THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving

Remember to GIVE THANKS over this holiday season. We all have people, events, stories and things to be happy for this season so lets think and look back over this past year to remember them and give thanks for everything.
