Your Best Life: Be Not Afraid

I have felt anxious recently. No meds required, only this reminder:  Jesus speaks ...

but there are also other voices trying to choke out and dismiss His voice; 

 voices of doubt, fear, hopelessness, despair, guilt;

voices that lie, discourage and kill; voices that say: it’s no use, no need to pray, hope or try anymore; it’s a dead end situation, it’s over, it’s worthless; it can’t change; it’s obviously impossible. 

But listen to His voice instead of the world’s voices. He speaks Truth. He brings the dead to life. He does what no one else can do.

So, listen to His Words: “DON’T BE AFRAID; JUST BELIEVE!”

While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, 

Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master 

any further?

 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, 

he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, 

Be not afraid, only believe. 

( Mark 5:35,36)

Valentines Day: Let your man be the initiator

Remember Ladies, every man is afraid of SOMETHING. That's one of the ways you know he's in love with YOU. He's afraid of LOSING you. If you are always having to CHASE him, BLOWING UP his cell phone, HITTING him up on facebook, text messaging him ALL the time, he's probably NOT in love with you. Never CHASE love and affection or attention. If it's not given FREELY then it's not worth having. Be careful of COMMITTING yourself to someone who is not committed to you. Judges 16:2 ... Am I RIGHT Brothers or am I WRONG? #LOVEisaVERB

The book by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo called He's Just Not That Into You, affirms the above; and most importantly, so does Scripture.

Note to Self, Year 2017

Worth sharing from one of my favorite preachers: 

Where I have my devotions, my wife Leslie "Sugarbabe", has a plaque on the wall that I look at all the time. It reads as follows:

BELIEVE
LEARN FROM YESTERDAY
LIVE FOR TODAY
HOPE FOR TOMORROW
When you are DOWN to NOTHING God is UP to SOMETHING
