Talk to God

God talk

Authentic God-talk is very different than religious sounding talk. The reason is that God-talk is focused on an ongoing relationship, a love relationship. Religious talk focuses on what you Do, and not who you Are.

God cares about who you are...

Read Phil. 3:9

Spend time talking with God and receiving the Fruit of HIS Spirit. It's a very different experience from religious talk. A whole different world...

Never, Not Ever

Nothing can ever separate us from God's love...nothing, not ever.

Read Romans 8:38-39 (The Message) the Apostle Paul says, "I'm absolutely convinced that nothing...nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable...absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us."

If you're feeling forgotten, take time to connect to God and receive His love.  It's closer than you think!

LOVE IT!

I love it when God surprises me with prayer surprises!

Today someone at work asked me if I would pray for them!  Wow, that was so cool.  Then, someone else started talking to me about God out of the blue.

Finally, I got a really cool prayer praise reminder about how good God is!

LOVE IT!

How has God surprised you lately?

SOL


I recently learned (from the book Good and Beautiful God by James Bryan Smith) that God’s Wrath basically means when people take matters into their own hands God leaves them to their own devices. 

Without God, they are SOL.

So, it seems to me we don’t really have to ask God to strike someone with lightening.  They are on their own, and believe me that’s more than enough torture.
