T.O.D.A.Y.'S ENCOURAGEMENT for Nov.4th T.O.D.A.Y.
Ministries How is everybody doing on this journey so far? For those of you who have just recently joined us, we are learning how to move from complicated "lifestyles" to a simplified "way of life"; the kind of life that Jesus came to give us. A life of peace, joy, contentment and fulfillment . . . . . . . . . . . Not one that is continually filled with stress, confusion, disappointment and frustration! I have already pointed out, earlier, that this starts on the inside of us. We have to allow The Holy Spirit to make changes in our mind, will, and emotions first. Our thoughts, desires, and feelings have to get in line with The Word of God, and then it will be much easier for us to make those adjustments in our daily life that will bring about changes in our circumstances. What we think, want and feel affects our behavior (the way we talk, act or react in any given situation). This is why we have to be willing to let God do His work from the "inside----out". I know that many of you have already heard these things, and especially from me over and over again, but I have found out, through these past twenty-five years, that God is smarter than me, and He set up this principle . . . . . . . . we LEARN by "repetition". We can see this, time and time again, in the Bible. (And all of you know how I feel about everyone getting into The word for yourself and finding out what it says.) I have already given you many scriptures that pertain to making the "spiritual" changes on the inside and now it is time for us to start "applying" this in the "natural". The Lord has made it so "simple" for us to live a life that, not only blesses us, but also helps us to be a blessing to others. So, that is what we will be talking about this week. We are all tired of someone telling us "what" to do, without telling us "how to do it". RIGHT? Have a Blessed Day!! In His Love, Luanne We welcome your comments and prayer requests.
