In life, we at some point, ask the question, “Do I matter? What is God’s plan for my life? Does God still have something for me?” The answer to these questions is, “Yes!” Regardless of your circumstances as a follower of Jesus, God is at work declaring and ordering your steps. He’s working in your home, in your family, and in your future.
We need to be in a relationship first with Jesus, then our family, and with whomever God brings before us. We only have a limited number of days to live, would you live them large or would you just curl up in a ball waiting on death? When we live large… it’s a bold and a passionate statement of following the word of God. We tend to end our lives before it even starts. The main cause is because we lose our passion due to the beat down the world gives us. God promises to lead us, to hold onto us, and to never ever let us go. In every part and every aspect of our lives, He is on the journey with us. We have His word on it! God calls us to be more than just bold about His gift of life, but passionate about it.
In today’s society, so many people have a passion and they bring change in the world around them. Unfortunately, many of those changes are not of God. The remedy for life’s unanswered questions is joy and contentment in what God has provided. The journey of life is peppered with encouragement from God. Once we learn to accept each day as a stepping to stone on the journey of life, then and only then will we enjoy what God has given you. The change starts with your first then to the world around you. If the change is done without integrity, then your questions are to how can I live for you Lord but how can I live for me?
2 Peter 1:5 Because of this, make every effort to add integrity to your faith; and to integrity add knowledge
We as Christians need to have more passion for Christ, instead of allowing the world without integrity to win! See, we are on a limited number of days in each of our lives. We could die today or fifty years from now…it is how you live that matters. Live with a passionate lifestyle in Jesus, in prayer, and in living with integrity by God’s words. When you find the assurance in being content with God then you’ll see the signs your life has been protected! The journey is not how fare with go but who is leading our steps.
Living Life Large 4 Christ
