Ephesians 2:10 New Living Translation (NLT)
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
YOUR VOICE MATTERS ~
Speak up for what is right in life. Be the one who makes a difference in a positive way. God has given us his word (Bible) to live by. Scriptures that come alive in a good way. Planting hope and peace in all we do. God is able to hear us in the smallest of voices and change our lives daily to better. God even hears us through our tears of life.
1 John 1:5-7 English Standard Version (ESV)
Walking in the Light
5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.
Life isn't just about our voice but our actions. Walking in the truth of God's word and allow him to use our lives in a new day. Our journey continues and we should give thanks daily for being alive. I know I have talked about it a lot but after my heart attack in September of this year, it changed me. I realized how quickly my life could be gone and I didn't want to leave my family. I felt the fear of that moment and had to call upon others to help me hold on. I know that God doesn't want us to walk alone on the journey. He puts family and friends in our lives for a bigger reason. Some will stay right by your side and want to share time with you. Some will pray and not stop praying until an answer comes. We must let other into our lives for that special connect in life. If we shut people out, then we are alone.
GOD NEVER LEAVES US ALONE ~
Joshua 1:9 New International Version (NIV)
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
My prayers continue for you, your family and friends. Be encouraged today and know that God is able. He is able to handle whatever you face today and is guiding your life. It is good to live in today and count blessings of life.
