The Good of Those Who Love Him

Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." If you love God, then He is always on your team. He will work things out for the good of those who have been called by him!! We never have to worry about any situation we will face, because God will take care of it!! He cares about us!! 

You are Gods Masterpiece.

Ephesians 2:10 "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." We are God's MASTERPIECE - created to do the good things that God prepared for us, way before we were even born!! We can't have our own plan!! God made us to do something specific! Get ready!!

Normal is Overrated

"Normal" is so overrated. So many people say they just want to be normal...but truthfully, I don't think anyone has a true desire to be "normal" or "average" - I think it's more that we have a fear of what people might think if we step out of the box. It's so much easier to just do the average thing - wake up, go to school or work, eat, sleep, and repeat. But what's the point of that? We need more than normal people to change the world! We need to be Jesus crazies! People want to follow people who stand out, not fit in!! I have a challenge for everybody who's reading this - this week, practice stepping out of the box. No! Don't JUST step out!! When you are out, pick up "the box" and chunk it!! Throw it as far away as you can... And never go back to average!! Don't let your fear of what your friends might think keep you from stepping out!! BE CREATIVE and BE YOURSELF (and "yourself" is not normal)!! :) I'm ready! Are you?

Get Off The Recliner!!

I don't know about you, but it is easy for me to be lazy. It's easy to sit around at home and do absolutely nothing. But thats not what God wants for us!! Anyone can sit around on their recliner and play solitaire all day, but it takes someone bold to actually DO something. As Christians, we are called to serve and make disciples! This week, instead of sitting around and doing nothing with meaning, let's get out there and love, serve, give, etc!! I'm tired of easy! I'm ready to get out there and DO stuff with meaning!!! What about you?!?

Believe and You Will Receive!!!

"If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." ~Matthew 21:22Believe and you will recieve!! When you ask God for something, then turn around and doubt that it will really happen, then its not going to happen. Instead, when you pray for something, believe in your heart that God can answer that prayer, and guess what....your prayer will be answered! God does not want his children to doubt his power! God can do anything and everything - nothing you ask for will ever be too hard for God to do!! It's us that block our prayers from being answered - our doubt changes everthing. Believe that God will answer your prayers, and he will!!
