It’s all about “Love”

Purpose to do all things in and through the eyes and strength of love.

No matter what happens you can be assured that what you’ve done, was done with the right heart and motives.

God sees the heart above actions, words, thoughts.. all things!

Our words and actions justify or condemn (Matthew 12:37 37 – For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”)

But our heart will always betray us with the truth to God. (Jeremiah 17:10 – But I, the LORD, search all hearts and examine secret motives. I give all people their due rewards, according to what their actions deserve.”)

These Three Remain!

When all else fails, these three remain to leading the way to a new day and a new beginning from the ashes of all that seemed lost.

Our job is to only believe all things are possible and we can do all things through….. Christ Jesus!

Root of Joy!

Knowing who you are in God brings an unspeakable joy. You can’t describe it but you truly feel it. When you know how much God loves you, it only amplifies the joy you feel because you will get an idea of how valuable and special you are to Him!

I celebrate the life and gifts of you as well because the love of God shed abroad in my heart gives me the ability to do so!!

Hugs and Love from me to you!

Happy Father’s Day!

Perfected Love

Fear has the power to hold people captive in their own minds. It has the power to paralyze and destroy without ever leaving a mark. Fear tramples on dreams and crushes hopes. Fear binds us to failure. We can never fulfill our God given purpose if we are always in fear.

Job said, “For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that I was afraid of is come unto me.” (Job 3:25)

What thing have you greatly feared that has now come upon you? What were you afraid of that now is a reality in your life? Can you break its hold or influence?

We give life to our fears and infuse it with power to overtake and torment us. It is very real and for too many people a yoke around their neck that drags them down with every step.

So, how do we overcome this spirit of fear?  It is written, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love cast out fear: because fear hath torment. He that fear is not made perfect in love.” (1 John 4:18)

Love has the power to break fears hold in our lives. Knowing and believing that you are loved unconditionally by God is the first step in breaking the power of fear.  He first loved us while we were yet still sinners and his love never changes.

Don’t fear things to the point that you give it power to torment you. When fear rises up, let love rise up even higher and know that love never fails!!!

Love in Action – God word produces actions. Valarie

 

What does it mean to fear the Lord? Too often we confuse fear with being afraid as in harmful, terror, nightmares the wrath of God etc.

However, fear here is respect, honor, high regard or reverence to name a few.

When we respect, honor and hold the Lord in high regard reverencing who he is, wisdom will be our companion. Knowledge and understanding will open our spiritual eyes to see things that would normally be unknowable with our carnal minds.

We would see unconditional love as something attainable despite the actions of the world around us.

We’d understand better how the Holy one of Israel was able to do all he did despite the sinful nature of man including forgiveness of sins.

Love in action – Reverence the Lord! Valarie

 

The Thing I Fear the Most

 

The thing I fear the most is falling out of love with love or me allowing love to become tainted with my feelings, cares and concerns. Let me clarify, not my love because that can happen at any time. I’m talking about God’s love in me. Although my fears may be valid, they are not rooted in the spirit but the flesh.

However, perfect love cast out all fear (1 John 4:18) and the only love that is perfect is Gods. As I continue to renew my mind with the word of God, me fears will become less and less. It is said that practice makes perfect. As I practice walking in love and letting it takes root in me, my fears will subside. Perfected love will break the hold of fear leaving me fearless in love.

Love in Action – Let us love in both word and deeds! Valarie
