“So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.” Colossians 3:12‭‭-‬17 NASB1995

All of what we do should be to glorify God. This should be in every aspect of our lives: work, family, entertainment, how we treat each other, how take care of our bodies, etc. It shouldn’t be about what we want but what God wants.

“Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.”-Psalms 119:105 NASB1995

This verse was used on Sunday in a sermon. Sometimes when we read or hear scripture, we recognize something that we missed before. God’s word is amazing like that! What stuck with me this time was how the word of God truly is the guide that we need to navigate through this dark world. Here is another one about the opposite of the evil, darkness of the world.

“This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.”

1 John 1:5‭-‬7 NASB1995

Romans 8:37 tells us that, “You are an overcomer, and you will triumph.”

I don’t know who needed to hear that this morning, but it sure is reassuring to me. No matter what this world throws at us, we are ready and will overcome it.
Once we surrender to the shaping hands of the Spirit of God, He will not only “renew your mind” but transform you down to your very soul.
I think that’s where the magic 🪄 is!

Quote that I heard this week, “You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.” – Joyce Meyer

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Philippians 2 says: work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
Out here, God gives us the breath and the chance to be here.
We bring some good old fashion grit and make a trip up Jucomajaro
Or we are motivated to do more pushups than we would do on our own.
So thank you.
But The Christian walk isn’t like that. But we do bring something.

The difference is explained in the next verse:

for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

I don’t have it figured out, we work at it. He does the work.  Pray that God will empower your spiritual life to be greater than just trying hard, but that God would move through you.
