The good life just keeps getting better…
Annie and I talk about Jesus all day long. We talk about the wonderful life He’s bringing us into. What a marriage God has given Annie and me. We’re each other’s faith partner. We build each other up in Jesus and remind each other about “doing” His Word. We’re best friends. We often laugh together about the joy Jesus has brought into our lives as He continues to renew our minds to His Word. This is such incredible love. God has truly blessed us with being able to help each other through life by living in Jesus. Life’s not about money, bank accounts, clothes, vacations, prestige, pride and all the rest. Life is about Jesus.
Ann and I are discovering something wonderful, something the devil never wanted us to find. God is rewarding our faith in Him, in His Word. When we believe Romans 8:28, God backs it up by working all things together for our good. When we release all of our care, God tells us He’s in control of whatever tried to make us “care” and that He’ll work it out for our good. When we get tempted with “sudden fear,” God reminds us that He’ll take care of us and that we don’t need to be scared. What a wonderful life we’re experiencing in Jesus. God is actually showing us how to exchange our limited human understanding for His promises, provision, rest and care of us. This is the good life. It’s simply amazing.
5 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
Deuteronomy 6:5-9
God bless,
Mark
