INSPIRASUNS

A friend sends me a text message every morning that contains a bible verse. He also posts the daily scripture readings for his church and provides his thoughts about the readings. I make it my evening routine to read these and get his thoughts. I look forward to his texts as they provide a great start to my day with a small piece of scripture that I can digest quickly. Yesterday I got his text and the verse immediately touched me so personally that I had to text back. I simply said, “Love this!!!”. The verse was 2 Timothy 2:15 and it reads, Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

After over 200 blog posts, (hard to believe this is number 202), I have to admit there are days when I’m not sure why I’m doing this, why am I here? I come here each morning and share my thoughts and experiences. There are days when I share funny stories, events, or personal experiences, some days I’m angry and need to vent, I allow myself to be vulnerable, sounds a lot like life doesn’t it? Through it all, I try to share my love of Father. I try to convey to all of you how imperfect I am and yet I know that God still loves me. I want to share the gift He has given me, a love so deep that some days it’s hard to even understand. How can He love me so much?

Yesterday, in reading 2 Timothy, I got my answer. I’m doing this because Father has asked me to do this. He has asked me to share everyday experiences, experiences that I hope some can relate to. He has asked me through that sharing to try and bring more people to him, even if it’s just to read one piece of scripture a day. I may only have two people read this little blog today, maybe no one reads it, and that’s ok. I’m putting the message out there, I’m sharing His love and showing the gift Father offers.

There is an old saying, “this life is not for the faint of heart”. There are days when this life is hard no doubt. There is evil in this world, no doubting that either. However, I choose to stand firmly with Father, being strong in faith and defeating evil. God always wins my friends, and I’m so glad that we are on his team.

So, if you have those days when you are wondering why you are here if you’re wondering what your purpose is, have a conversation with God. Let Him guide you, He will, this I’m confident. At the end of the day, our mission is to show others the peace and joy that comes from an intimate relationship with Father.

Thank you friends for your incredible support of this little blog, over 200 posts in the books. Your kind words through texts, private messages, and conversations are very humbling. I’ll keep doing my best to share the experiences and His love.

Have a great day my friends 🙂 .
