Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did. 1 John 2:6 NLT

“As a believer in Christ we have the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. We have the power to change.” God speaks to us and longs for us to listen. He leads by His Spirit and allows us to recognize His voice. When we’re still in His presence of His love, He helps us understand what He’s trying to convey.

God wants us to recognize what comes from obedience; our willingness to do what is right. Sometimes we become distracted and it’s hard to hear the voice of truth. But He speaks in ways we understand. As we draw closer to Jesus and choose to receive, we become aware of His presence and want to live in a way that’s pleasing to God.

The Bibles says, God’s voice thunders in marvelous ways; He does great things beyond our understanding. John 37:5 NIV HE helps us in our daily walk with Christ. As we examine our lives, He knows our weakness and helps us handle our days. He provides what we need to grow in  His faithfulness. He leads us by His WORD and helps us remember we don’t have to live on our own.

We’re restless souls in a world that’s not perfect. But God sent Jesus to save us. He nurtures us with patience, compassion and love. Jesus brought HOPE to the world of darkness. As we become more like Him, others will recognizes His love though us. We should think and act like Jesus did and LOVE HIM completely.

As we humble our hearts for the One who died in our place, we will become more like Jesus; precious Jesus. God will bless us with peace as we continue to share what He provides! We must greet each day with praise for our Savior and strive to remember what comes from surrender and trust. And we must never be ashamed to admit why we NEED Christ. He is deserving of ALL of our love.

Dear God, thank you for Jesus! Oh, how we need to love Him with ALL of our hearts! Help us listen as You speak in marvelous ways, so we will recognize what comes from surrender. We will examine our lives and understand WHY we need the Savior. As we draw closer to Him, we will find peace in ALL You provide. Thank you for HOPE and the promise of what’s to come. We will faithfully trust YOU all of our days and understand how to live with a grateful heart. Thank you, Lord.
