What Life Is Really About!

“For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.”  Matthew 20:28

Jesus was speaking and this is what he had to say about himself.  He said that the reason he came to earth was not to be served, but to serve by giving his life as a ransom for many.

It is very easy to forget that our life here on earth is about something and the something is not ourselves.  The something is other people.  Take some time today to intentionally reach out to make life better for others and you will discover that it actually makes life better for you!

Live blessed, because it is what you were created for!

Fight The Mind Battle!

“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.”  Romans 12:1

I Ain't Got Time For This!
I Ain’t Got Time For This!

We know what we should do, but doing it is often the real challenge.  We know what we should not do, but keeping ourselves from doing it is the really hard thing to do.  I have noticed that most of the battles that take place in my physical life, take place in my mind before they manifest themselves in reality.

Learning to fight and win the battle in the mind, will save us a lot of heartache, time and trouble in the long run.  What we give to God, God can take and use in amazing ways to move us to a place of blessing and fulfillment.  The beautiful thing is that this allows us to give to God glory, which He is due and it allows God to give us blessing, which allows us to give Him even greater glory.

Take some time today to think about the battles you are fighting in your mind.  Fight those battles and win – you will be glad you did!

Getting Your Heart Right!

“Create in me a clean heart, O God.  And renew a right spirit within me.”  Psalm 51:10

Get Your Heart Right!
Get Your Heart Right!

Our heart is the center of who we are.  Our creator placed a heart inside each one of us to give us physical life and a center for our spiritual being.  Without a heart, life would not be possible.

All of the sacred literature teaches that we are to guard our heart because it is the very source of life, both physical and spiritual.  With our heart we determine our actions and with our actions we make a life.  The living of our life reflects what is inside of our hearts and it does not tell a lie.

This is why we must continually ask our Creator to renew our spirit and create a clean heart within us.  Take a moment today to think about your heart.  What is going on inside of it?  It is where it needs to be?  Do you need your Creator to help clean your heart and renew your spirit?

He will, if you will simply ask Him and then yield to His work in and through you.  With your Creator at the center of your heart, you are sure to head in the direction that will take you into blessing and fulfillment!
