Freedom in Christ is pretty amazing. Consider for a moment your worst days/weeks, maybe even years that you have had. Now consider for a moment what you did to come through. I was reminded by some very dear friends that our source of flowing and healing waters cannot come from other people but from the source - Jesus!! Our flesh cries out to people to fill our needs but Jesus must be our source of life. I may have posted this song before but listen anyway.
If you are in one of those times right now just close your eyes and listen to this song again. Seek him with all you are. If you need some prayer support call a trusted friend to pray you up - or message me and I will pray for/with you. Jesus is truly our source of life!!! We can try to find life and fulfillment elsewhere, maybe in other people, maybe in our jobs or maybe in whatever else comes along in life - but true fulfillment comes from Jesus himself.
I prayed this morning for an overflowing of love in my heart. I asked God to grow my heart and fill it so full with His love that it just overflows everywhere I am, with whoever I am with. But I don't want anything in me that will get in the way. So I seek him with all my heart, in prayer and in the word. I can spend time alone in worship with my creator. When I do this I am prepared for what my lie ahead. When I don't I have allowed room for the enemy to sneak in. Be aware - he will sneak in, he may even just come charging in with all he's got. But Christ has won the victory and we have that every day.
Lord, strengthen each of us to be strong in you. Empower each of us to be with you every day and to find real intimacy with you, our creator. Remind us how much you love us, despite ourselves, and equip us to be bold for the kingdom. Amen and Amen!!!
