Staying on my feet

He can keep me on my feet. I will never fall when I am in Him. I will stand tall in His bright presence. I will do the happy dance for sure and celebrate without end. There is no blame or fault finding in Him.


He is able. And He will.


 
To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy. Jude 1:24

When I care

I have to get out of myself. Out of what I think is so dadgum important. I have to start being "care-full". I need to abandon myself to caring. What else really matters?

Isn't that what I love so much about my Father. He abandoned himself so much that He sent His Son for me. He didn't hold back any good thing. His gift to me is complete!!

May I be care-full!! May I be cared for.

You're more than happy when you care. At the moment of being 'care-full,' you find yourselves cared for. Matthew 5:1-12

Always good news

There is always good news with God. He is always happy to have us back when we miss His goal for us. He is strong and never grows tired. His love brings us peace and calms us. He is tickled pink to delight us. He is in a good mood and not upset with us.

Yes, there is always good news with God.
Jerusalem will be told:  "Don't be afraid. Dear Zion, don't despair. Your God is present among you, a strong warrior there to save you. Happy to have you back, he'll calm you with his love and delight you with his songs. Zephaniah 3:16-17

May I be open to the good news and see that God is with me, powerful and delighted with me.

Is the truth to close for comfort?

All heaven is applauding when I get in trouble for speaking the truth of the government of God. God is God and in control. I am in good company when I am put down for making his rule known. God is light and shines truth on us all. I can't hide His light. I can't pretend He isn't in control.

How often, though, am I considering what others will think if I speak the truth in love?

May I speak the truth and seek our Father's approval and not others.
Not only that—you will be more than happy every time people put you down or throw you out or speak lies about you to discredit me. What it means is that the truth is too close for comfort and they are uncomfortable. You can be glad when that happens—give a cheer, even!—for though they don't like it, I do! And all heaven applauds. And know that you are in good company. My prophets and witnesses have always gotten into this kind of trouble. Matthew 5:1-12
