A quilt-maker can take seemingly useless pieces of fabric in multiple sizes and shapes and sew them together resulting in a beautiful quilt. Like pieces in a quilt , Jesus, as our carpenter pieces the tragedies, joys, failures and accomplishments of our lives and knits them together into the beauty of our lives.
Christ is our King! We must always be reminded, even with the confusion and chaos in our world, Christ is King! One day Christ will come into His glory to judge mankind. He will separate those who follow Him as King from those who do not. Those who follow Him will live with Him for eternity. Those who do not will be cast into eternal pain and destruction.
Has God ever interrupted your burdened prayers with His Joy? Rev. Gary Kennedy shares how the Joy of Jesus interrupted his prayers. You can experience that same Joy.
Exodus 20:4 reads “You must not make any idols. Don’t make any statues or pictures of anything up in the sky or of anything on the earth or of anything down in the water. Don’t worship or serve idols of any kind, because I, the LORD, am your God. I hate my people worshiping other gods." ESV Idols are not limited to statues, icons, carvings, or golden calves. They also come in the form of significant others, children, parents, jobs, money, church, sports figures, television, food, gambling, drugs, alcohol or anything else we allow to replace our time actually seeking Jesus with our priorities to fulfillment. How will you choose to list, draw, or represent idols in your life, either past or present? Take the time to find a way to do so and after acknowledging they are sin before the Lord, destroy them with a shredder, scissors or fire.
The book of Joshua is the first book in the Bible following the Pentateuch (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy) and it begins with the word AND. This suggests it is a continuation of the message in those books. In the first five books, God let His people know how much he loved them and the many blessings he had for those who loved Him. Moses was given the task of rescuing them from their oppressors and leading them to a new land filled with God's abundance and blessings. Because of their disobedience, the people wandered around for many years in search of that promised land. When they arrived at the river over which they must cross to reach their destination with its blessings, two and a half tribes chose not to cross. The rest of the people, under the leadership of Joshua crossed into the land which measured approximately 300,000 square acres. They only occupied 30,000 square acres of that land, however. God had promised them so much more and they chose not to receive His full blessing. How often has God promised abundant blessing to us and we limit our faith in His provision and do not take the needed steps of faith to accept His blessings. We keep hoping and praying when we should be moving and accepting. We limit ourselves with our limited faith. Don't sell yourself short. Take that step of faith and trust Jesus.
The stewardship of our lives can bring us much joy. What will you dedicate or re-dedicate to the Lord? If you are not sure, pray and ask God what He wants from you.
No matter what challenges you are facing in life, God Has You Covered. Psalm 91:4 reassures us, “He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge…” And Deuteronomy 33:12 declares, “The beloved of the LORD shall dwell in safety by him; and the LORD shall cover him all the day long...”
