Day 14: Jonesing for Jesus


Declaration of Dependence

Declaring Dependence

Dependence ~

Confidence

Craving

Belief

Trust

Obsession

Addictedness

All words for dependence.

What are you obsessed with?

What do you put your confidence in?

What do you crave?

What do you believe?

Who or where do you place your trust?

What are you addicted to?

Well...

I found another word for

Dependence

Jones~

"To have a fixation on

To be addicted to"

Oh boy now I really am convicted today as

Dependence

has taken on a whole different meaning now

Jonesing for Jesus~

"to have a strong need, desire, or craving for"

Jesus

Because Jesus

meets every strong need

every desire

every craving.

To be addicted to Jesus

To be fixated on Him

To Fix

our eyes on Jesus

when a dead end is all you see...

To Fix our eyes

on Jesus

when anxiety is your best friend...

To Fix our eyes

on Jesus

when loneliness is paralyzing...

To Fix our eyes

on Jesus

when

the what ifs

the if onlys

the should haves

the would haves

&

the could haves

leave you stuck...

To Fix your eyes

on Jesus

to

Have Confidence in

To Crave Him

To Believe Him

To Trust Him

To be Obsessed with

To have an Addictedness to Him

is

what sets one

Free.

What are you Jonesing for~

Peace

Joy

Hope

Love

and where are you looking for it?

My eyes have been fixed on and still get fixed on

other people, places and things

to fill those inner

needs

desires &

cravings

and when I succumb

there is still an unfulfilled hole that

still needs to be fed.

Because

whatever my eyes

whatever your eyes

are fixed on

to fill

that void inside

that is what you will become.

To Jones for Jesus

is to

Fix your eyes on

whatever is true,

whatever is noble,

whatever is right,

whatever is pure,

whatever is lovely,

whatever is admirable—

if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8

and that is

fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith Hebrews 12:2

Because when you are fixated on Him

you can't be fixated on anything else that blocks the path

of

Living Free.

Because

If the Son has set you free

you will be free indeed. John 8:36

and

Being Free

is

Being

Dependent

Confident

Craving

Believing

Trusting

Obsessing

Addicted

and

Jonesing for Jesus.
