Joy

THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN WITHIN IS MY TREASURE AND JOY.

Everyone delights in finding hidden treasure. Whether a child discovers coins buried in a sandbox or an adult stumbles upon a priceless antique in the attic—finding unexpected wealth is joyous! The greatest treasure, however, isn’t hidden at all. It is the kingdom of heaven within. God’s abiding presence brings treasures of love, wholeness, and life.

Joy comes from discovering God as my source of wisdom, strength, and joy. God’s limitless supply meets every need. This is treasure indeed! I need not search for happiness on the outside when the kingdom of heaven is here on the inside.

The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.—Matthew 13:44

There are so many people both lost and hurting in sin. What is the relief from them today? The typical answer is generally more sin, i.e.,drugs, sex, violence, crime and pain. We are witness crimes against people at an inhuman portions. The question is why?

I read that a man held three young-women prisoner for over 10 years for whatever he pleased. Why? People blowing what people at a well meaning marathon for what reason? The simple answer is sin, in other words an absence of true love.

The Joy of Jesus is that sinners are saved by grace.What do we mean by this statement? Jesus came into this world to save sinners, which is everyone. Jesus died on the cross so that we may see the light. God raised Jesus on the third day so that we may live with Him in perfect peace.Joy.

Given this tremendous gift of faith in a people lost in sin to be saved without merit is a gift of joy. Therefore it must be shared. The Holy Spirit has used me to share this message of love to all who have eyes and hears to pay sharp attention to the meaning of this gift of both love and joy. This is why we must like and share an answer to life's basic question against the sins of the world. Jesus.

Easygoing

I AM CALM AND EASYGOING.

Life can be busy, but rather than rushing from one activity to another, I remind myself, “Easy does it.” I remember to slow down and fully savor each moment of my life.

Throughout the day, I give myself breathing space by pausing frequently for a few minutes of prayer and meditation. Bringing my awareness within, I notice my breath as it becomes steady and calm. Even in a brief moment of quiet, I sense the presence of God within me. I am enfolded in holiness, resting in Spirit.

This small break helps me relax and open to the joy of being alive. I am aware, awake, and in the flow as I continue with my day in an easygoing manner.

Those who listen to me will be secure and will live at ease.—Proverbs 1:33

Healing

I AM HEALTHY IN MIND, BODY, AND SPIRIT.

Good health is important to me. I want to feel, do, and be my best mentally, physically, and spiritually. One key to my good health is prayer. In quiet moments of communion with God, I open myself to wisdom, power, and inspiration.

I visualize God’s life within me as healthy cells, creative thoughts, and vital energy. The life of God animates and regenerates my body, mind, and spirit. It is the life force that keeps me strong.

If health challenges arise, I meet each one with faith and understanding. Proper nutrition, ample rest, and daily prayer are all part of my health plan. I trust the spirit of God within to lead me to right actions and optimum health.

Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you?—1 Corinthians 6:19

Mother’s Blessing - Sunday, May 12, 2013 | Daily Word

Mother’s Blessing

MAY ALL MOTHERS BE BLESSED WITH LOVE AND APPRECIATION.

I bless mothers and all who give from their hearts to care for children. Love is essential for a child to thrive and grow, and today we celebrate and honor maternal love.

With gratitude in my heart, I bring to mind my own mother or a motherly figure. I give thanks for the one who nurtured and guided me, stood by me through difficulties, shaped me into the person I am today. Connected by a love that transcends time, distance, and circumstance, we are one in the love of God, forever linked and blessed.

Mothers of the world, may you be blessed knowing you are loved and appreciated. God is the source from which all love emanates, and you are an expression of God’s love as you tend to those in your care.

I will bless her, and she shall give rise to nations.–Genesis 17:16
