| LIVING THE SOLUTION WITH DAILY INSPIRATION |
But what
happens when we live God's way? He brings gifts into
our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in
an orchard--things like affection for others, exuberance
about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick
with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and
a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things
and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments,
not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal
and direct our energies wisely.
(Galatians 5:22-23, the Message)
Are you looking for and longing for
peace, compassion, commitment, wisdom and a sense of
ease as you navigate your way through life? Are you
living the way that God created you to live: from your
heart, following your heart’s desires and living
for Him out of your passionate love for Him? Or are
you trying to live the “Christian” life
by following the “rules”, not necessarily
all of the rules, but what you think will be just enough
to get you what you what?
The way God created things is as follows:
We were created for a intimate loving relationship with
God.
We are to live our lives from our hearts, from our passionate
love for God.
When we do what we were created to do God will bring
out the following in our lives:
A willingness to stick with things.
A sense of compassion in the heart.
A conviction that a basic holiness permeates things
and people.
The ability to make and keep loyal commitments.
A sense of not needing to force our way in life.
The ability to marshal and direct our energies wisely.
So which kind of life do you want? Go live it!
Live it with Passion
