Experiencing God In Everything

Aren’t we so blessed to live surrounded by God’s 🌼artwork🌼? One of my favorite things to do is go 🌸outside🌸 and enjoy 🌳nature🌿 as God made it.

We love living in the 🌻country🌻 and looking out over His beautiful 🌵handiwork🌵 every day. You can feel it on your 😀skin, smell it with your 🌼nose and 👀see it with your eyes.

He is incredible in all His splendor. For example, do you know how your 😀senses can 💥spark💥 memories? The 👃smell of cinnamon reminds me of Christmas, the 🎵song, "Lucky" reminds me of my wedding day, and the feel of 👖sweat pants reminds me of high school track.

God's 🌻goodness🌻 is more powerful than all our senses combined.

A bad thought or memory can be wiped 💦clean💦 with his truth. An already good memory can be made 🍎sweeter🍓 with his perspective.

Within the last year, God has changed the way I feel about going to the 👁eye doctor. I used to dread going because I felt like such a 😟failure. After one of my appointments, God showed me that I wasn't failing, I was finding the lens that would make me 💪better. Now, I love going to the 👁eye doctor and find 😁joy in getting a prescription that works for me.

What is something that God has changed your perspective on? How have your feelings changed and he had it affected your life now?

Be an Idiot for God

You know that kind of dirt that is just old and crusty and doesn't yield much growth? It takes patience, rain, plowing, love and care to change the chemistry of that soil. After it has been healed, the soil is moist, dark brown and smells like earth. But it didn't get to that point without a little work. Think of yourself as the old dirt. God wants to plow up the old crusty part of your life that isn't fruitful anymore and replace it with new, moist, healthy soil to plant good seed. God wants to take you higher than you've ever been before but you have to want it. The process may be painful but the fruit will be delicious. I want to encourage you to come into the newness of the spirit but you'll need the strength of God to get your through, not your own strength. Last week, my husband and I had to take his truck in because it was like riding Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. For whatever reason, the tires we received a couple months ago shredded and needed to be replaced...

Reforming Undesirable Behavior

You know that thing you do that you don't wanna do but you keep doing it because you can't stop doing it? These behaviors might include: lying, cheating, raging, gossiping, pornography, drinking, drugs, eating, throwing up, etc. Reforming these behaviors on your own can prove to be a little tricky. I'd say reforming undesirable behavior might even be impossible on your own. But there is still hope for us. With the love of God, the power of the Holy Spirit and a renewed mind, you can reform your behavior. Youth conference with lots of God encounters! An encounter with God is the easiest way to reform undesirable behavior because the encounter will fill you with the fear of the Lord. The fear of the Lord renews our minds in a way that informs our bodies of what's beneficial to our spiritual health in the eyes of God. So, your mouth doesn't want to lie anymore; your tongue won't allow you to eat certain things; your eyes will be opened to the evil of pornogra...

How to Live a Spiritual Life in a Physical World

In one of my earlier posts this week , I talked about living a spiritual life as opposed to being caught up in a physical world. When you get down to it, you might be left scratching your head, wondering what that actually means. While I'm young and still learning, let me offer you some tips: 1) Fall in love with God and...everyone! Read how in my previous post . 2) Have an interactive relationship with God. Make praying throughout your day a priority and don't always do all the talking. Listen a little bit and watch God reveal new and exciting things to you. Find new ways to pray and include it in your daily routine. 3) Say "no" to bad things around you. We are all tempted everyday by anger, greed, lust, and other temptations. Don't be weak! Say "no" and live the good life. If you fall into something before you even realized you said "yes", get out! Pray, repent, and ask Jesus to bring you back on track. 4) Do what God tells you to ...
