Has an alien visited earth? Feb.27

 Yes, but he did not have a teardrop shaped head, no big eyes shaped like footballs, no skinny body like a stick figure. His name is Isesous.

Subconscious mind Feb.21

A subconscious mind, without the guidance of the Holy Spirit, pushes urges like gender, the self, and culture issues into the conscious results of guilt, shame, and disillusion.

Work Feb.20

 And the Lord said,

        "Often, your culture will say do something to solve a problem. And when you do not have an answer, you fret and worry. This approach lets fear raise its ugly head and creates caution which blocks faith. You need to stop what you're doing, take a deep breath and call upon My presence. Rest in the faith that I am always the avenue of the best answers. Especially slow down when you are extremely tired of this earth. Rest and meditate on Me. Then, you can see better what My more perfect plans are for you and the future. Never let the body drive the spirit. Stop and let the Spirit direct the body."

 

Prayer: Lord, make me ever sensitive to your Spirit as motivator of life.

 

True Freedom Feb.19

        When the Father created the first human, He limited himself and allowed a seed of his free will to enter the dirt that became Adam. The true-life essence of every person contains this basic freedom: to choose its own way. The Father knew allowing free will into humanity was a costly risk. It is not unlike when people decide to birth a child; they are never totally certain what their child will be. Of course, the Father knew and took the risk, birthed Adam and Eve and sure enough, His heart was broken. Nothing but a special love could have done this. 

    The act demonstrates a point of relationship I, your Savior, have with you. We bridge together the joys and heartaches to become one. The choice stays yours.     

 

Prayer: Thank you Lord, for caring so deeply for us when we do not deserve your gracious love.

Feb. 13 Misdirected Ambition

Nothing is more seductive than a misdirected ambition, one that strives for praise and power in whatever form it can pursue. Those who waste life in various forms [life or death] are traveling the path of misinterpreted ambition. So many of us Christians get caught up in misunderstanding acceptable ambition [ the need to go beyond ourselves] such that determining who is Christian today and who is not becomes clouded. Christians and non-Christians alike follow too many self-motivated, dishonest goals and those goals tend to achieve the same.

Feb. 12 God's True Grace

One amazing part of God's Grace is that if you can never get close enough to bear someone else's burden, Son Jesus has already paid for it all and is willing to bear all the load.
