Love

We gotta love people....

Scripture of the day!

John 9:11 NLT

He told them, “The man they call Jesus made mud and spread it over my eyes and told me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash yourself.’ So I went and washed, and now I can see!”

"the man they call Jesus" not the man he calls Jesus...  He didn't have a personal relationship with the Lord... The Lord didn't stop to introduce himself..  Didn't tell him that he was God... He just blessed him. The man didn't even see it coming (pun intended lol) he just knew a guy put mud on his face and it was suggested that he clean it off...  And all 'a sudden, he could see

we as the body of Christ need to operate from a position where we can bless people that don't even know us... I'm not talking about people across the word... I mean people right in our city that we walk by... without flashing our Kingdom ID we should see a need and supply it rather they're believers or not...

Someone homeless on the street needs some cash... Y? They just gonna buy liquor and weed with it...

I'm sure that man who was healed used his eyes lustfully at some point... 

It's not our job to analyze what they do with the blessing. It's our job to love.

:)

My kids will call my name a thousand times and expect me to turn my head and acknowledge them... When I don't... Cuz I'm busy or irritated they persist and get louder and closer... When I finally turn to them they are like, "look what I can play"... And they cheese real big and play something and look back at me for acceptance... Because I have so many of them I can't give them the attention they long for... :/ but thanks be to God Jesus isn't like that with us. When we call His name... He hears us. He listens. He pays attention to us. He cares.... And even though we are heard, we don't always seek Him like we should... Yet He's there... Ever present... Looking after us.. Listening to us... Smiling at us, because we are His. :) 

Scripture of the day:

Psalms 3:4 (KJV)
I cried unto the Lord with my voice,
and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

Humility

Scripture of the day!

1 Samuel 5:1-4 NLT

After the Philistines captured the Ark of God, they took it from the battleground at Ebenezer to the town of Ashdod. They carried the Ark of God into the temple of Dagon and placed it beside an idol of Dagon. But when the citizens of Ashdod went to see it the next morning, Dagon had fallen with his face to the ground in front of the Ark of the L ord ! So they took Dagon and put him in his place again. But the next morning the same thing happened—Dagon had fallen face down before the Ark of the L ord again. This time his head and hands had broken off and were lying in the doorway. Only the trunk of his body was left intact.

Thought: don't let people worship you when you know God is sovereign.. He'll break you. Be humble
