Love

 What is God teaching you today?

1.  Popularity and notoriety is not where it’s at for me. I don’t need everyone to love me, revere me, sing my praises or laud me. 

2.  My motives need to be checked daily for envy and jealousy. 

3. Savoring surrender is possible. 

4. The lowliest servant is just as loved by God as the richest feudal lord. 

5.  Peace can be found in a fitting room, a cup of coffee, a kind word and a conversation that feels like a warm hug. 


Jesus

What you’re teaching me when I’m disciplined enough to shut up and listen is revolutionary. In my exhaustion is where and when you work. Love isn’t loud. It doesn’t need to be shouted to the world. Love doesn’t seek to profit. Let me love people, not judge them because if I’m not careful my sinful self will still do it. 

Lord, let me focus on my street not others. My sincerest desire.

    Man's natural inclination is to seek that which the world calls success- money and popularity. To seek first his righteousness is the Christian's calling which runs counter to what the flesh naturally desires. Praying daily to seek his will and not mine is what I have to do. And yes, to savor the simple joys that bring contentment and peace. Praying that your weekend is filled with moments of joy, wisdom and continued truth seeking.

Play Doh

 My brain is a hodgepodge of miscellany right now. Trying to discipline myself to read the Bible, the devotional, be a better human being, manifest the good life. Let me tell you, I fall of the wagon every day it seems. The only thing that seems to center my brain is a childhood activity.  Play Doh is resurrecting my soul. No sacrilege to Jesus. Play Doh is allowing me to indulge a childhood passion to create. The pressure to create with that smelly concoction is not one of perfection, but mindless joy that is surprisingly bearing fruit.  I can roll that colorful confection in any way I please. If there is a mistake, it’s easy to fix, and if not its cheap enough, I don’t fret. I will gladly spare a few dollars at the Wally World to get some more. I don’t know if this will be the summer of rediscovering God through childhood joys.  You don’t want me to chase you. You want me to just be. Rest may be the hardest, yet most vital lesson I learn and relearn daily. With God...
