Hold on! Do not loose hope!

"You are the recipient of Christ's sacrificial love. Accept it enthusiastically and share it feverently. Jesus deserves your enthusiasm; the world deserves it; and you deserve the experience of sharing it."

This stood out for me, as I have been 'toying' with the idea of starting a blog to simply share my daily thoughts and prayer reflections and, this reading compounded the idea and...ushered it into reality. The Spirit of God is alive, indeed.

I am a recipient of God's sacrificial love, just by the fact that I was given the breath of air this morning. In my acceptance of such, I will seek to share it with those who will follow this. 

I am enthusiastic about the love Christ has shown me and the way he allowed me to know Him in a deeper way...it is this enthusiasm I desire to share.

For those worried about the path life is leading, or being out of control of events surrounding you, being lost in life and not being able to explain experiences. I say: Hold on! Do not loose hope! Know that Christ is in control!

I leave you with this quote that I believe emanates the way we should live our lives IN CHRIST:

"I never really look for things. I accept whatever God throws my way. Whichever way God turns my feet, I go."
