Picture of Wisdom

 

Just the Pure

“[Two Kinds of Wisdom] Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.” James 3:13 NIV


Follow the example of Christ and view His perfect life as the picture of wisdom we need to place in the frame of our lives. Remember its not about people knowing all the great things you do and have done and bragging about how great you are for helping others- IT IS- having Christ live in you and THAT show through in your actions just like Christ- with humility and loving kindness. Bless other people with your life because that is what Christ would want you to do!  God Bless You All and have a wonderfully fantastic day!!!!

Monday Inspiration

One of the best things about life is that it comes one day at a time.

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.” Matthew 6:34

Have a wonderful week!

Thank you for the Monday Inspirations Sue

Slipping

“When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, LORD, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” Psalm 94:18-19 NIV

Wow, He is always there for us; reaching out for us and grabbing out hand when we fall. Love and joy, peace and hope, help and guidance, these things truly only come from the Lord. Grab His hand when you are slipping but remember you don't have to slip to reach out and grab His hand. Rely on Him in the good times as well as the tough times. Know God is Good and He loves you very much!!!!

Monday Inspiration

Faith in God….it’s like a hug when you really need it.

“He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart.”  Isaiah 40:11

Have a wonderful week!

Thank you Sue for the wonderful Monday Inspirations. 

Status Update

I am sure you know of a social website where you can update your status. You can be available, busy, idle, and even invisible. What is your status with Christ? Are you busy, invisible, idle, or are you available to have a personal relationship with Him? Are you to busy with all the things and to do's of this world to have a personal relationship with the God Almighty? Are you hiding from Him because you want to remain in your sin? Have you just been idle, stuck at the same place never growing or learning about Christ just keeping the identification- Christian? Do you for go these built in statuses and make your own where you are the center of attention, it is all about you, and you get all the glory? Or are you available to cultivate, grow, and dive into the main facets and depths of our Savior, Lord, Hero, Helper, Healer, and Father?  Think about what your status is with Christ and then make your status about a constant transformation and dedication to loving, living, and moving closer to Christ. I want my status to be  permanently available- saying, I loves Jesus and am doing everything I can to be more like Him everyday. Don't you? Have a blessed week!

Monday Inspiration

Grace is receiving what we do not deserve….Mercy is not receiving what we do deserve.

“The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.” Psalm 103:8-10

Have a wonderful week!

Thank you Sue for the wonderful Monday Inspirations!

Strength in Weakness

God uses the tough times in our lives to show us things we often forget. When we are feeling swept under by waves of struggle we are forced to our knees. Our cry to our Lord who hears, who helps, and who heals becomes louder and that is all we can do. We are in a state of constantly crying out to God Almighty and relying on Him for our next breath and our next step. In this place we are ever calling for Him and ever reaching for Him. Just think about the utter weakness you are in at that moment or during that time. You know that only through the mighty strength of Jesus can you succeed. He speaks to us in those times and says, "[m]y grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness" (2 Corinthians 12:9). Do you take advantage of that? You can either lay down and let your weakness consume you or you can let the superior unending overwhelming power of the Lord God Almighty shine through your weakness. Nothing is the same when you allow the Lord to work through you and you rely on Him every step of the way. The truth is "... NOTHING is impossible with God" (Luke 1:37). It doesn't say a few things, some things, or just the small things are impossible with God. It says NOTHING, meaning no matter what you are going through, what you are up against, or what waves of struggle are sweeping you under He has the power to help you, heal you, save you, and strengthen you. Forget what you don't think is possible and live the impossible with God! Remember to give God all the glory. Praise the Lord for He is good!

Verse of the Day

“I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I have set my heart on your laws.” Psalm 119:30 NIV

Focusing on G-d's law will keep your heart, mind, eyes, ears, and soul on the right path. His laws are set in place to protect you and guide you. He only wants the best for you, His precious child,  whom He loves. Follow His laws and be obedient to whatever He calls you to do and you will be on your way to building a lifestyle of faithfulness. Have a blessed day!

Heart of Encouragement

So many people get wrapped up in their own daily activities and the day to day to do lists they forget to reach out and encourage others. Practice having a heart of encouragement. Be there to listen, send an encouraging message or Scripture, or just lend a helping hand to someone who needs help nearby. Jesus was always going out of His way to meet the needs of His people. He went so far as to die for us so we can be free and not have to pay the penalty of death for our sins. How are you encouraging others? What other things can you do to encourage those around you?

Philippians 4:13 is my encouragement to you. You can do ALL things through the Lord Jesus Christ who will strengthen you and uphold you! Have an amazing day and an awesome week!
