Victory is the backdrop of my life. Joy is the soundtrack, inflected with hope. Love surrounds me. Faith is the ink that inspires my writing.
This is my life, my walk in words. Life is a journey to eternity. Destination: heaven. Hope to see you there.
If my Greek is correct, my given name means "beautiful." I pray my "lifewalk" is a beautiful one.
I’ve got Jesus. He’s enough for me. In Him, I’ve found contentment not complacency.
Discontentment with the course of life often leads to individuals attempting to repurpose their lives into something perhaps unintended in the blueprints — that is, God’s plan and design. His specifications, then are ignored. The proverbial “new leaf” is turned. We find ourselves tiptoeing toward novel ideas that would develop into new habits which lend themselves in furnishing a more meaningful life.
Um, sure.
Abandoning anything with zeal should be the ignorance of the call to salvation. All other attempts at redefining our lives are futile when left at the devices of our own hands. As for believers, we should desire a life crafted by the Creator’s fingertips and burnished by the Blood of Jesus. There shouldn’t be an ounce of “self” remaining. When others see us, they should see the Christ in us. Not a bit of our old selves remain:
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. — 2 Corinthians 5:17, KJV
It is embracing, daily, the new life in Christ Jesus that we find contentment, purpose, and meaning. For as long as we chase after His will, we will never be bored with life and constantly seek to redefine ourselves into something we were never supposed to be.
The best redefinition of anyone’s life is to be known as a follower of Christ.
Daily. It’s a Christ thing.
As humans, we require and crave love. We’re designed that way. Without satisfying that need for love, we become an empty shell of the purpose we were designed for by God. Therefore, it’s our requirement and responsibility to possess and show love. Daily. To others. Everyone.
The kind love the soul thirsts and pants for was made manifest through the life of Jesus Christ. He fully displayed what love should look like. Love is humility and making real —making kinetic — authentic justice and righteous toward others. Tangible love.
We cannot expect an abundant, successful life without the love of Christ. Go possess it! Love is what’s required.
Through the lens of truth and honesty, life is vibrant and alive. Centering focus on noble acts engenders the promotion of righteousness and justice; as such, goodness and hope flows graciously upon humanity. Open the blinds of purity. Unveil love and admirability. Follow excellence and communicate praise of others. Live unselfishly. Be to others the very needed, living reflection of Christ on earth.
— Inspired by Philippians 4:8-9. Change perspective. Live beautifully.
Imagine if God went on hiatus for a nano second! We’d cease to exist. He’s faithful and He requires the same from us. “Choose ye this day.” You can’t say you love Him and live for the world. Impossible.
Don’t live unwisely. Don’t live dangerously. Can’t say stuff like, “Okay, I’m gonna take a break. See You in a few, God.” Sorry, love you, but it doesn’t work like that, sweetums.
