The Conclusion part 2

When you get right down to it... it's all about love. Fear God and obey His commands. That's the whole story. The conclusion of the matter. But if you look at it on the surface, you might not see the love. Because love comes from the heart. It is underneath the surface stuff, buried down deep....

The Conclusion part 1

A lot of times I wonder what in the world we're talking about. We get so stuck on things like "hell" and the "afterlife" that we miss out on things like the days of heaven on earth. Things like abundant life. We read the Law and the Prophets and we miss out on Jesus! Here's my point, and my key...

The Ride part 5

If you enjoy the ride then it doesn't feel like a never-ending journey. It doesn't feel like a struggle to get somewhere. If you enjoy the ride then you understand that we have already arrived at the finish line. The journey isn't about getting anywhere. It's about discovering where we are. And who...

The Ride part 4

Life is for living. But we seem to miss out on this truth as we rush from one thing to another trying to make life fit into a box. Trying to make things be how they're "supposed to be." We never seem to be able to slow down and just enjoy the ride. I read somewhere that the time you enjoy wasting...

One of my favorite songs has a line in it that says, "Free and easy down the road I go." And when I hear that song I can't help but think that that's what Daddy wants for us. I know it's what I want for MY son... and I know that God's love for us is even more perfect (mature, complete, fully...

The Ride part 2

Stuff happens. Every day. And basically we have two choices: 1. We can judge by appearance. We can ride the emotional rollercoaster. Way up when things are "good" and way down when things are "bad." But I can tell you right now--and you probably already know--that's exhausting. Not to mix my...

I think a big part about this never-ending eternal life long journey that we seem to miss is that we're supposed to enjoy the ride. I think we still have this mentality of: If I finish the work, THEN I can rest. And we never enter into GOD'S rest because of unbelief. Because we don't believe--or...

Content part 5

12/01/2015 12:28

Being content is knowing, understanding, and accepting what you've got and who you are. Not trying to get anything, or be anybody. And that's only possible when you see yourself in Christ, and when you see Christ in yourself. Because He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Without Him we feel...

Content part 4

11/30/2015 15:07

There's a trick to being content. And it's simply where you choose to put your focus. "Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth" (Colossians 3:2). Focusing on what you've got instead of what you (think you) lack. Focusing on who you (really) are rather than who you think...

Content part 3

It's a journey, this never-ending, abundant, eternal, everlasting, Resurrection Life. And if you're content--with what you've got and who you are--then it's an enjoyable journey. It's fun. It's exciting. When you know that Daddy cares for you, you can cast your cares on Him. You can live above all...
