My life has been transformed. Just when I thought I knew who Jesus was, He shows up and totally rocks my world again. He has instilled a craving inside my heart. A craving so powerful that all I can feel is absolute Joy!
When you look at God’s Plans for me, those are exactly the plans that I have for myself. God’s Will is my plan. Sure it sounds scary to other people. But I have such a peace in the unknown right now. I am wonderfully confused about my next step in life, but I have peace for the first time in a long time. I am stepping into the unknown fully knowing of only one consistent thing and that is that Jesus is already there.
I am being called to something so much bigger than myself and I am ready to stand up and leave everything behind to follow Jesus and God’s Will for my life. I am going to use the gifts and talents He gave me to serve a purpose that will bring people home to The Kingdom. One person at a time and with The Word at my side, I am going to change this world. I want to give people even a glimpse of Heaven when they see me. When people look at me I want them to see Jesus. I want them to see his love, grace, and mercy.
The world today is ugly. Change is needed. A Spiritual Revival is needed.
God needs His people to step up now more than ever. He needs us to speak the bold truth with a genuine heart. He needs us to be unashamed to show it. God isn’t looking for Sunday Christians. He is looking for the ones who are 24/7.
Sundays should be the very minimum of our week. I mean how can we go to church and still not be the church? The church isn’t the building, it is the body of Christ, and as the body of Christ, that means we are called to love.
“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but does not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hope, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now, we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:1-13
So, what are you going to be? A Sunday Minimum or A Weekly Maximum?
