Friday Matters
Everyday Performer

I am performer. I love the stage. I love to take on a new character, an accent and present to an audience.  But when it comes to real life I don’t want to perform. I want to be viewed as real, honest and sincere. No matter how long we’ve known Jesus personally, or professed ourselves as a believer it’s still important to go back to our ABC’S of Christianity: Admit, Believe and Confess.  Admit we can’t go at it alone. We need the grace of God. Believe Jesus is who He says He is, trust Him. And Confess our own sin and stop trying to point out everyone else’s.  

Just think if your “thought-life” was recorded from just yesterday?  Think of the judging of others, including yourself.  HOWEVER there is a God who knows EXACTLY our thoughts, dreams, hurts, motives and desires. He’s there with grace to make us new.  Jesus loves with no conditions. He is always on the move in our lives with redemption and grace.  This crazy love is from Jesus in a relationship and not through religion…everyday.

Everyday What are you wearing?

I got to meet David Crowder and he’s as cool as you think he is.  He walks out his life by knowing who Jesus says He is. Mr. Crowder is known for his amazing worship music.  However I talked to him about his book, "Praise Habit" where he writes, “A nun does not get up each morning and go to the closet and think to herself, Hmmm, I wonder what to wear today. The habit is what she wears. It’s what covers her. It’s what identifies her. Our condition is the same. Our habit is the Christ. He’s what covers us. He’s what identifies us. We wear Him into every moment, and when we live with this awareness, we PRAISE CHRIST!”  

But very often I don’t think this way when I “get dressed.”  Instead, I think on ways people have hurt me or the responsibilities I have.  Let’s wake up the world by clothing ourselves with compassion and kindness (Colossians 3:12).  Let’s love others truly with no judgment or condemnation…everyday.

Love VS Trust

 
Wednesday Matters
Everyday Love VS Trust


Can we love someone and at the same time not trust them?  That does not mean we have to give someone access to our bank account just to prove we “love” them when they have and continue to steal from us.  We show compassion for an alcoholic by offering our help.  We also show compassion by not “enabling” the alcoholic by protecting them from consequences for their bad actions.  Many times consequences are the “severe mercy” that is needed to get their attention.  The caution is to make sure we have not elected ourselves their jury and judge.  

It's the Holy Spirit who guides and directs us in how we should move forward in love which might be setting a boundary or not continuing in conversation with someone when they repeatedly spew out garbage to us.  Trust in God who loves you and the other person. He’ll take care of us, He’ll take care of them…EVERYTHING, no matter what…everyday.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. The fruit you grow is rooted in God and comes from Him. Since it comes from God, it’s stable and not like worldly happiness, which is merely emotional based on what “happens" to you.
​Let’s grow with the bright burst of love that God brings to you and I as we walk in faith, not fear.  
Galatians 5:22-23
