So how are you today~
Happy or Sad?
Thankful or Resentful?
Overwhelmed or Peaceful?
Hopeful or Hopeless?
However you are
that is where you are~
and sometimes
you and I like it
and sometimes
we don't.
But it is what you are feeling
in the moment,
therefore
feel it &
express it to the One who felt also
because
"Jesus wept" (John 11:35).
The shortest verse in the bible,
yet a powerful verse
that shows
Jesus' relatability
to you and I
because
Jesus felt
and
didn't deny
His feelings
in the moment.
"When you are
Joyful, be Joyful;
when you are
Sad, be Sad.
If God has given you a sweet cup, don’t make it bitter;
and if He has given you a bitter cup, don’t try and make it sweet;
take things as they come." (Oswald Chambers)
To be content in the moment
just because
Jesus is in every moment
no matter
what you and I are
Feeling or Experiencing~
"Not that I speak from [any personal] need,
for I have learned to be
Content [and self-sufficient through Christ,
satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or uneasy]
Regardless of my circumstances.
I know how to get along and live humbly [in difficult times],
and I also know how to enjoy abundance and live in prosperity.
In any and every circumstance I
have learned the secret [of facing life],
whether well-fed or going hungry,
whether having an abundance or being in need.
I can do all things [which He has called me to do]
Through Him
who strengthens and
empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything
through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.] Philippians 4:11-13
So I ask you
How will you be today?
