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.
Not an option — my soul SHALL make her boast in the Lord; the humble shall hear thereof and BE glad.
Not an option — I WILL bless the Lord at all times; His praises SHALL continually be in my mouth.
GOD gets the glory. Worrying and complaining, fussing and fighting about our problems does not magnify God, but compounds our issues. Our choices (in speech and in action), then, reveal what matters most in our lives.
As for me, nothing else matters. God is GREAT in my life! I have no choice — no option — but to honor Him with the fruit of my lips and the life I live. I MUST reflect His glory in this dark world.
Be light, friends.
When eliminating negativity, you might find yourself alone. Guess that’s why there’s a drama “club.” I’m not a member. Don’t wanna join.
If the harmonies of others don’t blend well with the song of my life, I’ll simply sing solo.
“Whatsoever ye do, work heartily, as unto the Lord, and not unto men …” —Colossians 3:23
Everyone has purpose and is equipped and gifted to fulfill it within their lifetime. Don’t become disinterested, disillusioned, or discouraged. Remove complacency.
Go forth and accomplish the work God has specifically designed for you to do. Do. Something. Now.
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.
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.
