REBIRTH!

The Scriptures speak of being born again. This has always been a fascinating and at the same time, confusing consideration. It is fascinating because, we want to understand, it is confusing because, most of us usually don’t make the effort. But we should, because while being born again is not necessairly an easy work, it is a very necessary one.

To be born again is to be born of the spirit and it is a spiritual process. It is the re-awakening to our potential and while it does require some effort on our part, it is our God, Spirit, Lord, Christ, Source, who does the heavy lifiting. Spiritual labor, just like physical labor can be challenging and tiring. It is work from the inside – out. It involves us surrendering our will and coming to a place of giving up, letting go, and allowing our heart to grow tender.

“Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” -John 3:3

In the spiritual labor of being born again, it does not matter who gets the credit, who is right, who is wrong, how long it takes, what the opinions of others might happen to be or who gets the prize??? The only thing that matters is the end result and some where along the way, we begin realize that all of our effort is just not enough. In the tired weariness of living in this old sin sick world, we finally surrender, give up and allow ourselves to rest in the arms of our Creator. It is at this place that the miracle of rebirth begins to happen.

Being reborn is finding the love we’ve been searching for all of our lives. Once we are reborn, we quickly find comfort in our new skin, because we understand that we are loved. We are loved because we were created by love and for love. We are not so easily distracted by the stuff of this world, because we finally understand that we are just passing through to a better and more perfect place. We experience freedom that sets us free from fear and allows us to overcome any and all challenges with love, sweet love.

This new energy of love opens up a whole new spiritual world within the physcial world of our dwelling, which offers us opportunities for growth outside of ourselves and into the supernatural. It is within the supernatural, that we find the strength, maturity and spirit to grow as we have never grown before. This growth in grace is the sweet and beautiful gift that we were created and re-created for, so please make sure that you enjoy it, every baby step of the way…

Steps To Solving The World’s Problems!

1 Comment

The world we live in today is in a big ole mess. I recently heard a news commentator exclaim that “God can’t help us!, but that we can help one another, if we will just start to love.” The problem with his statement is this: We cannot give to anyone else what we do not posses for ourselves. In order for us to share love with someone else, we must first have a source of love that we can receive from, so that we might share. The good news is that we do in fact have a source, because the Scriptures teach us that “GOD IS LOVE!”

Love is the beautiful gift that God has blessed each of His children with, but what we do with that love is a choice that each of us makes for ourselves. While love is a very beautiful thing, it is a somewhat useless thing, if it is not received and shared. Love discovers its power and purpose when it is given away. Love becomes a miraculous and powerful force when it is allowed to flow into and through our lives. It flows through our recceiving and sharing. In this way our Creator is glorified and we are all blessed.

“A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.” -Joh 13:34

Live your life in such a way that you become an expression of God’s love. It is more important to show people you love them, than to tell them you love them. May our actions and reactions become exxpressions of love.

Live your life in such a way that you become a channel of God’s love. Open your heart, mind and spirit to receive God’s love. You are loved and it is God’s love that makes you worthy, so stop fighting that battle already. Once you receive God’s love, make sure that you are sharing all that you are getting from His love = grace, mercy forgiveness restoration and blessing by allowing it to flow to you and through you. Becoming a channel of love allows you to fulfill your created purpose, experience the miraculous and brings you great personal fulfillment…

You Are Special!

The big battle of our lives is with our ego. The battle of our ego happens when we get caught up in believing that we are what we do, what we have or what we think other people think of us. It distracts us from the reality that we are all special creations of the Most High God…

When we learn to step out of the battle with ego and instead focus our energy on the reality of who we are and what we are created to do, we find purpose that drives us to the higher levels of living and allows us to enjoy the blessings of the supernatural.

“Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God.” -John 1:12-13

Our power to live does not come from the world we live in, but from our Creator, the same One, who created this world we live, learn, laugh and love in. Stop for a moment and let that thought sink in, so that you may realize just how amazing and majestical you are…

You are created by God, in the image of God and gifted with the power of God. God is your source and spirit, your everything that really matters. If you want to discover and tap into your true identity, then you must begin and end with the beginning and the ending and that is God.

God is your home and it is from this place of safety and shelter that we find the empowerment to go on into whatever it is that lay before us. From this place, right, good and light flow to overcome wrong, bad and darkness to make the impossible – possible.

Our thoughts, actions and feelings become one with our Creator and our created purpose to guide us into the fulfillment of our destinies. Find the rest you have been looking for, by understanding that there is nothing for you to do, but submit, let go and let God.
