EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
(Galatians 2:20 NIV)
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”
Life can be so different when we wake up encouraged and expecting God to show up in some way. We look for Him in the streets we walk, in the areas we drive by, in the people we speak to daily. We look for Him in our marriages as we strive to understand the changes that are taking place. We look for Him in our children as they learn to live life according to His will.
 Everywhere we look, Jesus can be found because He lives in us and we are seeing through His eyes. We don’t have to go far to find Him. We just have to call on Him and He will appear. His word then comes alive and begins to encourage, to appease, and to give direction, teaching us to rest in Him.
 Everything is a choice with the Lord. We either do it our way, because we think we know best and because we want a quick result or we choose to wait on Him, no matter how long it takes, and rest in knowing that the end result will be satisfying and perfect just for you.
 What is meant for us by the Father’s hands will always deliver His anointed outcome, covered and protected by His hands and received with joy by a grateful heart that sings all praise to Him.
Waiting on God may not be easy but trusting in Him can be if we are accustomed to knowing that His power, grace, love forgiveness, and compassion for our circumstance will rise above anything we can ever expect when we do it in our own strength.
