God has been dealing with me lately on my heart and how to walk in love. I have discovered that God’s expectations of us are to trust Him with what little we have and grow in loving people in the way the He loves us. He sent me this word (s) yesterday….Ephesians 3:16-19 (in a nutshell) says, “I pray that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. You will be rooted in love and have the ability to grasp how wide, deep, long, and high is His love and to know His love surpasses all knowledge.” It’s a simple concept; with such a profound impact!
My life continues to be in uncertainty only because I let it. I can say this, because I finally realized that I do not trust God 100% in my life. If I did trust Him, then peace would reside in me and it currently does not. My flesh constantly worries about the stability of my job, what action to take (fight or not fight), and what to believe and not believe. My spirit (holy spirit) knows that I should pray and wait on God. There is nothing more to it. If my flesh would merge with God’s holy spirit and love would become my foundation, then I would be unmoved and withstand the storms in my life.
2 Timothy says, “For if we died with Him, we shall also live with Him. If we endure, we shall also reign. If we deny Him, He will also deny us. If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.” The road map has been presented to me and all I need to do is follow it. The question is, “Will I walk divided or stand as one?”
Love in Christ,
Nichole
