Know God? Then live like it!

"And [said Jesus,] I tell you that to everyone who gets and has will more be given, but from the man who does not get and does not have, even what he has will be taken away." Luke 19:26 AMP

Know God, and spend quality time with Him on a consistent basis?  If so then this life that you live now will prove to be fulfilled in ways that bring ease to your heart and joy to your soul.  You will come to the end of your life filled with Jesus; peaceful, joyful, satisfied, blessed, and loved.

Don't know God, and aren't taking the time trying to know God?  If not then this life that you work so hard trying to obtain all of your goals and dreams in will only prove to be tireless, never-ending, works that will never fully satisfy.  You will come to the end of your life worn out, unfulfilled, unsatisfied, and, more than likely, alone and heavy burdened.  

Therefore, get to know God more and more ~ make this life you are living one to be lived for!!

Do you want to become well?

“When Jesus noticed him lying there [helpless], knowing that he had already been a long time in that condition, He said to him, Do you want to become well?...”

John 4:6 AMP

This verse gets me every time!  I love it because I believe it’s the Lord asking me, “Do you want to have a better life; do you want to live a victorious life?”.  It makes me realize the things I’ve been complaining about, the excuses that I’ve used, the anger that I’ve not let go, and the forgiveness that I have yet to give to someone I may be upset with.  It makes me get off of my pity-pot!

Now, let me ask you, “Do you want to have a better life; do you want to live a victorious life?”.  If your answer is, Yes, then join me and GET UP!!  Our lives our too short to be focusing on the darkness in our lives; to be focusing on what or whom we think we need to blame for our problems.  Let's get off of our pity-pots, move on from the darkness, and take a hold of this blessed life that Jesus so brutally died to give us!  

Yes! Today, we begin afresh and anew, and we begin to live like we’ve never lived before – and all of this in the glorious name of Jesus.
