Day 31: Live More


THE END.

FINISHED.

Good-bye August.

September will greet us tomorrow morning

with pumpkins and Christmas trees.

But just because the month will change,

will you?

I hope I do,

because I want

MORE.

I want MORE of what JESUS has for me.

I want to LIVE IN THE ABUNDANT LIFE, while LIVING with LESS.

I want the IMMEASURABLY MORE.

And I might sound selfish,

yet it is just the opposite,

because

MORE OF JESUS

is

LESS OF ME.

 "HE must increase, but I must decrease"

(John 3:30).

The MORE I SURRENDER to JESUS,

the MORE it becomes about JESUS than it becomes about me.

Less BITTERNESS, more FORGIVENESS.

Less ANXIETY, more PEACE.

Less DOUBT, more TRUST.

Less OFFENSE, more LOVE.

Less DESPAIR, more HOPE.

Less ANGER, more GRACE. 

Less MEAN, more KINDNESS.

I want MORE OF JESUS,

and LESS of me.

 "HE must increase, but I must decrease"

(John 3:30).

Do you want LESS,

so you can

LIVE MORE?

LESS of _______________, MORE of ____________.

Oh can you just imagine

LIVING MORE?

Well,

no MORE just imagining,

because

JESUS IS REAL AND SO ARE YOU

and

HE wants MORE OF YOU.

For I am just a little flea flying through this life

wanting to be so BIG IN JESUS,

so that even if I become a gnat

and someone swats me

I will just giggle and laugh

because

I know the ONE who keeps me flying.

I LOVE JESUS.

Yup.

How can you not.

For HE became LESS on the CROSS

so that HE can become our MORE.

Let's make this the

 best

 last day

 of August,

by making it our last day of

__________________.

What will you SURRENDER to JESUS

so that you become 

LESS

and

HE becomes your MORE?

Have an awesome day

LIVING IN HIS MORE

as you live

"LESS LIKE ME"

(listen to the song below)
